Libya denies attempts to get Uranium

Libya on Tuesday denied its attempt to get an amount of Uranium, the main component to manufacture the nuclear bomb.

Libya has also refuted African media reports which talked about the involvement of prominent officials in the Democratic Congo republic in selling and leaking an declared amount of Uranium to the Libyan authority.

In a statement issued in Tripoli on Tuesday, the people's committee for African unity in Libya said that these information are totally groundless and promoting them means just a propaganda for fabricated intelligence information to include the name of Libya in the service of certain forces.

In the first official Libyan comment on these reports, the people's committee for African unity said that " Libya's name was involved in such news on a futile base."
