Regional, Judicial, 12/17/1997

An international judicial committee decided to follow up Libyan opposition figure Mansour Kekhya's disappearance by activating connections with the Egyptian and Libyan government to look into the former Libyan minister's disappearance.

Kekhya disappeared in December 1993 after his participation in the trustees council's meetings of the Arabian Organization for Human Rights in Cairo. The Egyptian authorities had an investigation that revealed nothing.

The organization formed last October an international committee that comprised judicials from Arab and European countries as well as from the US to follow-up on the case and discover what happened to Kekhya.

Sources in the committee said that a meeting that was held in which they ordered notes sent to the American government providing information about Kekhya's disappearance.
