Tunis, 12 June 2017:

The House of Representatives (HoR) is inciting hatred and violence by publishing a list of 75 Libyans which it accuses of being terrorists, says the country’s ambassador to Uganda, Fawzi Bukatef.

He is one of the names on the list which was drawn up by the HoR’s Defence and National Security Committee last week (the full list is below).

“This is not going to help reconciliation in Libya,” he told the Libya Herald from Kamala.

The accusations were completely false, he added, threatening to take legal action against those who compiled it. He said that he had fought for the revolution, having already spent 25 years opposing Qaddafi. He had been a point of contact between the revolutionaries and NATO and, far from being a terrorist, had been working against terrorists who were opposed to the revolution or who threatened the Libyan people.

“Once the war was finished, I pulled out of everything,” he said, including leadership of the 17 February Brigade, although he noted that he still kept a close eye on what was happening.

The HoR terrorist list simply did not make sense, he insisted, and it was a tragedy that the parliament had produced it.

I’m not against Hafter or the HoR,” he said, “but I don’t agree with what they are doing. It seems they want to fight and kill anyone who disagrees with them”.

In his own case, far from being a terrorist, he had for the past four years been an accepted and respected member of the diplomatic community in Uganda. “I’m here representing my country,” he said, “and this is what these people do”.

The Justice and Construction Party, generally seen as the political wing of the Muslim Brotherhood in Libya, has already protested at the inclusion of its leader Mohamed Sawan on the HoR’s list, which those who drew it up want to be added to the one announced last week by Saudi Arabia, Egypt, the UAE and Bahrain.

The State Council, whose president Abdulrahman Sewehli is also on the list, has likewise attacked it, describing it as an attempt to abort reconciliation in the country. Those behind the list were using the term terrorism to vilify and denigrate their political opponents, a statement stressed. The list was libelous and legal action was being considered, it noted.

Condemnation of the inclusion of Sewehli’s name has also come from Benghazi member of the HoR Ziyad Daghim. It countermanded efforts at dialogue which, he pointed out, the House has itself approved.

Daghim, himself a member of the Defence and National Security Committee, has also questioned the legality of the list, saying that it came from former members and that in any event it was not for the committee to decide who was a terrorist but for the courts.

“All this is not the competence of the House of Representatives,” he said.

There have been other protests.

 

The full list of names of Libyans which the committee claims have been cooperating with Qatar or involved in terrorism and which wants to be added to the existing terror list agreed by Saudi Arabia, the UAE, Egypt and Bahrain is as follows, together with the allegations from the committee (and further information in square brackets):
