The Central Bank of Libya has announced the suspension of all its operations in response to the kidnapping of one of its officials. The decision comes after Musab Muslim, the director of the bank’s information technology department, was abducted outside his home in Tripoli.
In a press release, the Central Bank called on responsible agencies to intervene urgently to secure Muslim’s release and to put an end to illegal actions of this nature. The bank expressed deep concern over the incident and emphasized the need for swift action to address the crisis.
Muslim was taken to an unknown location, and as of now, there have been no updates on his condition or the motives behind the kidnapping. The Central Bank’s suspension of activities underscores the gravity of the situation and highlights the broader security challenges facing Libya.
