Sirte Protection Force said Monday that it had recovered a body of an unidentified person that was found handcuffed near the city airport.

The spokesman for the force, Salem Al-amil, clarified in a press statement that the person dead seems to have been tortured by the ISIS State during their seizure of Sirte.

The body was recovered in coordination with the Red Crescent Society and the competent authorities and will be referred to the Forensic Department.

The Security Operations Chamber of Sirte received Sunday a tip-off from a local citizen of the presence of four decomposed bodies in his farm in Taweelah area in Sirte outskirts.
