2 July 2012 – Libyan authorities today released the four International Criminal Court (ICC) staff members who were detained in the country for nearly a month following their visit to Saif Al-Islam Qadhafi, who has been indicted by the court in relation to attacks against protesters and rebels during last year’s pro-democracy uprising.
“The ICC is grateful to the Libyan authorities for their agreement today to release the Court’s staff members so that they can be reunited with their families,” the President of the ICC, Judge Sang-Hyun Song, said at a press conference in the Libyan city of Zintan.
