The detained Australian lawyer Melinda Taylor was released from captivity in Zintan today, along with three other International Criminal Court representatives held in the town for the past three weeks.
ICC President Sang-Hyun Song, who was only informed of the decision yesterday, flew into Tripoli this morning to be present in Zintan for the announcement.
“I wish to apologise for the difficulties resulting from this train of events”, Sang said. “The information reported by the Libyan authorities will be fully investigated in accordance with ICC procedures following the return of the four staff members to The Hague”.
