4 Libyans Indicted in Egypt for Death Plot
Egypt indicted four Libyans on Saturday on charges of plotting to kill Libyan exiles in Egypt, with the public prosecutor demanding the death penalty.
The men, who will appear before a high security court in Alexandria, were arrested last month after what the prosecution said was a foiled bid to assassinate Libyan exiles in Egypt, including former Prime Minister Abdel-Hamid Bakoush.
Public prosecutor Abdel-Mawjouid Barbari has also issued warrants for the arrest of three alleged accomplices to be tried in absentia.
