Local media reported sources from the dialogue committee of the House of Representatives (HoR) as saying that the UNSMIL's Head Ghassan Salame met with the Heads of the HoR and High Council of State's (HCS) committees Faraj Mousa and Abdelsalam Nasiya.

The sources added that the UNSMIL presented via Salame new ideas for them to ponder upon to resume the Tunisia-hosted negotiations.

The HoR committee was supposed to have a closed meeting in order to discuss the ideas and proposals of Salame, the sources added, saying that the meeting will review everything was proposed over the last days.

The UNSMIL suspended the meetings on Monday after the HoR committee had withdrawn, accusing the HCS of being unclear in their demands, calling on them to present written guarantees of implementing of what has been agreed upon in the first round of the Tunisia meetings early this month.

Whereas, the HCS reaffirmed that it did not call for any amendments and the HoR is the one that rejected approving the Libyan Political Agreement and demanded it be amended, requesting the HoR to present written documents for what it wants to be modified in the agreement.

In the meantime, sources from the meeting confirmed that the reason behind the HoR's withdrawal is the objection of the HCS to annulling Article 08 of the additional provisions, which says all military posts would be vacant, including Khalifa Haftar's, as it scraps his current post at the HoR army.

A Libyan parliamentary dialogue committee has presented a list of demands to Ghassan Salame, the UN’s special envoy for Libya, within the context of ongoing talks in Tunisia aimed at resolving the country’s ongoing political crisis.

Libya’s main political camps are currently holding talks in next-door Tunisia with a view to amending a 2015 UN-sponsored agreement that gave rise to Libya’s Tripoli-based unity government.

The committee’s demands, presented to Salame by committee chairman Abdul Salam Nasyah, calls for the inclusion in the Tunisia talks of Libyan lawmakers who resigned in 2014 following elections for Libya’s Tobruk-based House of Representatives.

On the other hand, a lawyer representing the family of former Libyan leader Muammar Qaddafi has announced the formation of a team of five international lawyers to prosecute Qatari figures before the International Criminal Court. In a press conference held in Tunis, the lawyer Khaled al-Zaidi confirmed that the lawsuit against the Qatari figures relate to charges of supporting terrorism and causing the displacement of Libyans.

Al-Zaidi said that Qatar could be sued under Law No. 1970, which Qatar itself was the reason behind, and that no new Security Council resolution was required to file the case. Al-Zaidi vowed to pursue and prosecute all those responsible for rumors and fabrications against the Gaddafi family, stressing that he has begun investigating a large number of cases in and outside Libya.
