A number of political, social and media elites and Libyan institutions have called for an impartial and prompt investigation to determine the responsibility for what they called the crimes committed during the recent clashes in Tripoli.

In a press conference held in Tripoli, the elites called for an immediate end to the violence and the withdrawal of all armed brigades from the capital and its surroundings, insisting that the security matter in the capital should fall upon the authorized bodies.

They also stressed that it is essential for the Presidential Council, the House of Representatives and the High Council of State to assume their responsibility towards protecting the homeland and the citizens and prevent the recurrence of such violations.
