Ossama Anjiem \u2014 also known as Ossama al-Masri \u2014 was arrested on Sunday in Turin under an ICC warrant accusing him of war crimes and crimes against humanity committed in the Mitiga prison in Libya starting in 2011.Al-Masri heads the Tripoli branch of the Reform and Rehabilitation Institution, a notorious network of detention centres run by the government-backed Special Defence Force.\u00a0Rome\u2019s court of appeals ordered him freed on Tuesday, and he was sent back to Libya aboard an aircraft of the Italian secret services, due to what the appeals court said was a procedural error in his arrest. The ruling said Justice Minister Carlo Nordio should have been informed ahead of time of the arrest, since his ministry handles all relations with The Hague-based ICC.Nordio was grilled on Wednesday about the release of al-Masri during a previously scheduled appearance before the Senate. Opposition lawmakers from several parties voiced outrage and demanded clarity, with former Premier Matteo Renzi accusing the right-wing government of hypocrisy given its stated crackdown on human traffickers.&#8221;But when a trafficker whom the International Criminal Court tells us is a dangerous criminal lands on your table, it\u2019s not like you chase him down, you brought him home to Libya with a plane of the Italian secret services,&#8221; said Renzi of the Italia Viva party. &#8220;Either you\u2019re sick or this is the image of a hypocritical, indecent government.&#8221;Al-Masri was received at Tripoli&#8217;s Mitiga airport on Tuesday evening by supporters who celebrated his release, according to local media. Footage online showed dozens of young men chanting and carrying what appeared to be al-Masri on their shoulders.Rome&#8217;s ties with TripoliThe Democratic Party demanded Premier Giorgia Meloni respond specifically to parliament about the case, saying it raised &#8220;grave questions&#8221; given the known abuses in Libyan prisons for which Al-Masri is accused.Italy has close ties to the globally recognised government in Tripoli and any trial in The Hague of al-Masri could bring unwanted attention to Rome&#8217;s migration policies and its support of the Libyan coast guard, which it has financed to stop migrants leaving.Human rights groups have documented gross abuses in the Libyan detention facilities where migrants are kept, and have accused Italy of being\u00a0complicit in their mistreatment.\u201cIt\u2019s critical to understand why al-Masri was in Italy and why he was freed with such urgency despite the international arrest warrant,\u201d said the Democratic lawmaker Paolo Ciani. He said the choice \u201cappeared to be political.&#8221;Two humanitarian groups, Mediterranea Saving Humans and Refugees in Libya, said they were incredulous that Italy let al-Masri go.\u201cThose of us who managed to survive had believed that it was really possible not only to get justice, but more importantly to prevent this criminal from still acting undisturbed,\u201d they said in a joint statement. \u201cInstead, in recent days we have witnessed something shameful, unbelievable in how brazenly it has been conducted.\u201dADVERTISEMENTBut Tarik Lamloum, a Libyan activist working with the Belaady Organization for Human Rights which focuses on migrants in Libya, said Italy\u2019s release of al-Masri was expected. He said his release shows the power of militias who control the flow of migrants to Europe through Libya\u2019s shores.\u201cTripoli militias are able to pressure (Italy) because they control the migrants file,\u201d he said.Militias in western Libya are part of the official state forces tasked with intercepting migrants at sea, including in the EU-trained coast guard. They also run state detention centres, where abuses of migrants are common.As a result, militias \u2014 some of them led by warlords the UN has sanctioned for abuses \u2014 benefit from millions in funds the EU gives to Libya to stop the migrant flow to Europe.ADVERTISEMENTThe ICC prosecutor\u2019s office didn\u2019t respond to requests for comment. The European Commission spokesman reaffirmed all EU members had pledged to cooperate with the court.Additional sources \u2022 AP<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Summarize this content to 2000 words in 6 paragraphs in Arabic Ossama Anjiem \u2014 also known as Ossama al-Masri \u2014 was arrested under a International Criminal Court (ICC) warrant then released on a technicality.
