Italy's Meloni says she is under investigation for release of Libyan official
Briefly

Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni and other officials are under investigation concerning the release of Libyan brigadier general Osama Elmasry Njeem, wanted by the ICC for alleged crimes against humanity. Meloni firmly stated her intent not to be intimidated by the investigation and justified the release by citing a legal technicality. Critics argue that the release undermines human rights considerations amid Italy's migration policies. The investigation appears to mark the first formal inquiry into Meloni since her rise to office in 2022.
The investigation revolves around the release of a top official in Libya's Judicial Police who faces charges at the ICC.
