Tripoli – The Public Prosecution in the Tripoli Court of Appeal has ordered the detention of the Director of the Information Technology and Documentation Department. This department is within the Civil Registry Authority in Tripoli. Five other employees of the authority were also detained. Their involvement was uncovered. They granted a Moroccan national fraudulent national data. This enabled him to obtain national identification numbers. He also secured passports for himself, his wife, and their four daughters.
The prosecution directed an inventory of all benefits. These benefits were obtained by the Moroccan national and his family. They were based on forged documents. The prosecution also ordered a halt to the effects of all related administrative extractions.
The prosecution further clarified that the Moroccan national assumed a position. He became the head of the Rapid Transport Company. This was made possible by the forged national data. He also received 3,900 US dollars in foreign currency. This was allocated for heads of households. An additional 19,000 dinars was received. These were grants designated for Libyans. Furthermore, he obtained cash benefits for insured individuals. These were under social security legislation. Other proceeds derived from citizenship were also collected.
