Tunis, 28 November 2015:

A disgruntled Zawia woman shot up her local bank branch after it had refused to . . .[restrict]give her money from her own account.

The unnamed woman was reported to have used a shot gun to shatter counter glass partitions at her Wahda bank after the cash-strapped bank had told her that they were unable to provide her with any cash from her own account.

The incident serves as a perfect reflection of Libya today, four years after the 2011 revolution that had overthrown the 42 year old Qaddafi regime.
