Opposition journalist Daif Al Ghazal tortured to death
Reporters Without Borders is horrified by the discovery on 2 June of the body of writer and journalist Daif Al Ghazal (photo), who was kidnapped on 21 May. Al Ghazal used to write for a pro-government newspaper but for the past year had been writing for the London-based online newspaper Libya Al Youm. According to the autopsy report, his body bore the marks of torture and he was shot in the head. The organisation calls on the Libyan authorities to establish who was responsible.
