Tripoli based Libyan Prime Minister Abd Alhamid Aldabaiba issued a package of decrees that he described as “decisive within the measures to impose the prestige of the state and extend the rule of law” aimed at rearranging the judicial police and the security of facilities.
‘‘There is no more place for chaos or abuses, and security tasks will be exclusively for the statutory institutions of the state’’, Aldabaiba said. The reorganisations included:
- A decree to transfer the subordination of the Petroleum Facilities Guards (PFG) to the Ministry of Interior.
- The abolition of the Department of Operations and Judicial Security in the organizational structure of the Judicial Police.
- The formation of a committee headed by Acting Interior Minister Imad Trabelsi to follow up on the situation inside prisons and detention centers.
