The so-called Military Investment Authority affiliated with Khalifa Haftar has conned members of the Kwadik tribe into giving away a vast area of their land to build a hospital, local sources from Benghazi reported.

The Military Investment Authority talked the tribe into donating around one hectare of land to establish a hospital for rehabilitating the war-wounded and manufacturing artificial limbs.

After giving away the land, the victims discovered that the authority is planning to build supermarkets and malls instead.

The scammers offered to sell each building for 600 thousand dinars, according to the same sources.

In a statement, the Kwadik tribe denounced such actions from a party claiming to be a reliable military body, referring to it as "ISIS of public funds."
