The Libyan Prime Minister of the government of National Unity (GNU), Abdul Hamid Dbeibah, has pointed out that his government doesn’t intend to hand over the Gaddafi-era chief of intelligence, Abdullah Al-Senussi to the United States.
Speaking to Saudi Arabia-based Al-Arabiya TV Channel, Dbeibah said his government “aims to take Libya off the lists of terrorism.” He also urged Gaddafi’s son, Saif Al-Islam, to surrender to the International Criminal Court (ICC).
