Libya’s UN mission on Tuesday called for an independent investigation into images of an abducted member of the country's eastern-based parliament that showed signs of torture. On Monday, Libya's Al-Ahrar TV aired photos and a video showing Dirsi, apparently in a prison cell, wearing only shorts and chained with a padlock around his neck. In reporting by AFP, UNSMIL has said it is "alarmed" by Ibrahim el-Dirsi's" enforced disappearance" and described circulating images of his detention as "disturbing".
