LIBYA IS BEING PUNISHED FOR DISAPPEARANCE OF MUSA AL-SADR, SAYS IRAQI SHIA CLERIC MUQTADA AL-SADR

Thu 14 September 2023:

Influential Iraqi cleric Muqtada Al-Sadr has sparked controversy on social media platforms after blaming the floods in Libya that have left more than 5,000 people dead on the country’s involvement in the disappearance of Lebanese cleric Musa Al-Sadr in 1978.

“As for Libya, its sin is unforgivable in not revealing the fate of the master of the Lebanese Arab resistance, Mr Musa Al-Sadr,” Al-Sadr wrote on X (formerly Twitter).

“All of these matters must be taken into consideration… However, we ask God for safety for believing men and women in the east and west of the earth, even in Libya,” he added.

Shia parties accuse the former Libyan regime led by Muammar Gaddafi of “forcibly disappearing” Musa Al-Sadr, co-founder of the Amal Movement, on 31 August 1978, upon his arrival at Tripoli airport.

WHY IS HANNIBAL GADDAFI ON HUNGER STRIKE IN A LEBANESE PRISON?

Lebanese authorities have detained Hannibal, Gaddafi’s son, for years on charges that he is concealing information about the disappearance of Musa Al-Sadr.
