Tripoli, 27 March 2014:

There is no news of Italian technician Gianluca Salviato who is believed to have . . .[restrict]been kidnapped last Saturday in Tobruk. His car was found abandoned with the keys and his belongings in it. These included a medical kit containing  insulin which the diabetic needs to take daily.

It had been assumed that this was a kidnapping for ransom, but so far there has been demand.

“All the security forces have been mobilised and are working together to follow up on the matter,” the head of Tobruk Local Council, Faraj Yassine, told the Libya Herald. the There have been appeals on the local radio station and posters in town, both mentioning that Salviato is diabetic.

It was the first kidnapping in the town, Yassine said, and the incident had affected other foreign companies in what had always been “a safe and peaceful town” for everyone living there – foreigners and Libyans alike.

Yassine also denied press reports in Italy that the council had offered a reward to find him.

Italian news agency ANSAmed reported yesterday that municipal leaders in Tobruk had done so.  However, the Italian  press  today said that Salviato’s employers, construction company Enrico Ravanelli, had now decided to offer a reward.

The 48-year-old technician from Marellago near Venice was working with Ravanelli on a sewerage system in Tobruk. [/restrict]
