They said their boss disappeared as a result of a forced kidnapping at gunpoint on Sunday while leaving the workplace, in full view of everyone at home and abroad.
They called on all security authorities to assume their responsibilities and quickly reveal his whereabouts and release him, with no objection to taking legal action in accordance with the legislation in force and human rights.”
Al-Tawati was reportedly kidnapped in the Ghout al-Shaal area of Tripoli, on Sunday while he was returning home from work.
His kidnapping was attributed to an unidentified armed group driving 3 civilian cars.
