Tripoli, 4 September 2015:

Retired Maltese fisherman Carmelo Grech, arrested last month at Labraq airport after allegedly being found with . . .[restrict]over €300,000 in cash, has been freed. He flew back to Malta yesterday. He had been held for over a fortnight after the authorities decided to bring no charges against him.

He was detained on 13 August along with a Jordanian and two Algerians when he landed and was taken and held in Marj. Initially, it was reported that he had been arrested in a visa mix-up but it was then said that weapons smuggling charges would be brought against him.

According to Maltese reports, Grech had ferried medical supplies to Misrata during the revolution and had close links with the city.
