| Bashaga: Fails to Protect the Protest Movement, Masterminds Coup with the Muslim Brotherhood |
| 2020-09-01 |
| [ALMARSAD.CO] Since the start of the popular movement in the capital Tripoli ...a confusing city, one end of which is located in Lebanon and the other end of which is the capital of Libya. Its chief distinction is being mentioned in the Marine Hymn... , the role of the Ministry of the Interior has been at the heart of all discussions. It has neither succeeded in controlling the protests by the usual methods to prevent violations nor did it succeed in protecting peaceful Libyans in the middle of Martyrs Square. Worse still, it did not even release the kidnapped in the prisons said to be under its control. Fathi Bashagha’s attempts to lead the movement and present himself as the savior, despite the abject failure of his ministry in this simple test of the police being in the service of the people rather than of not the minister, aroused the ire of his new-old opponents in the capital. The situation of the "Tripoli Cartel", which the German Wolfram Lacher had described in detail in his April 2018 study and which still describes well the militia topography in the capital city, comprising the RADA Deterrence Force, al-Nawasi, Ghniwa, the Tripoli Revolutionaries, and other gangs—now loyal to Fayez al-Sarraj though some of them are affiliated with the Interior Ministry. |
