On Wednesday, Pardon International criticized a strong Libyan movement set up by the government to harass travelers and residents of Tripoli.

In a statement, he accused the Stability Support Authority (SSA) of "unlawful killings, arbitrary arrests, detentions and the consequences of inconsistent detention of travelers and exiles, torture, forced labor, and other violations of general freedom".

Pardon said the gathering was motivated by a "relaxed" atmosphere.

The SSA, formed under the auspices of the country's top leader Fayez al-Sarraj in January last year, is led by Abdel Ghani al-Kikli, one of the most influential men in the North African capital.

Pardon said al-Kikli, known as "Gheniwa", had been sent despite "a proven and true history of wrongdoing under international law and other general violations of the liberty committed by soldiers under his command".

Libya plunged into a vicious wilderness in 2011 with a NATO-backed coup that toppled longtime dictator Moamer Kadhafi. Armored circles competed for control of the area as the break-in line went all the way.

Many such gatherings have been convened in the state, mainly to cover half of the country's oil supply, and the rights movement has often accused them of misconduct.

Since March the nation has once again clashed with two anti-government administration systems.

Absolution said it had been in contact with Libyan experts last month to request that al-Kikli and his former envoy Lotfi al-Harari be removed "from areas that would allow them to break the law, interfere with trials or reward them with resistance".

He said he had not yet responded.

Harari currently heads the Internal Security Agency based in Tripoli, another Amnesty national force accused of "injustice and violation of normal freedom".

"To legitimize military repression and to invest in government funds without questioning so that they can continue to oppress the freedom of more people without full freedom," said Amnesty provincial chief Diana Eltahawy.

Last month Amnesty said criminals linked to the eastern Libyan warrior Khalifa Haftar had detained less than nine "dissenting and peaceful" dissidents, showing how "they have been mercilessly" restricted "in the regions most affected by Haftar's allies.

UN inspectors said in March that violations of genuine freedom, including human rights abuses, would have continued without the risk of retribution throughout Libya, hampering the nation's progress in harmony and a vote-based system.
