The appeals court has refused the appeal by Mahmoud Abdel-Aziz Milad Hassan Werfalli against the Integrity Commission’s decision . . .[restrict]to disbar him from Congress. Werfalli, one of the representatives from Tripoli’s Bu Sleem district, was ordered to be removed in February. He was the second Congress member from Bu Sleem to be disbarred.
