#libya Integrity Commission bans Olympic Committee president

The Integrity Commission has ordered that the head of the Libyan Olympic Committee President, Nabil Elalem, be removed from his post. No reason was given other than the standard notice that he had failed to meet the Commission’s standards of integrity.
Also banned is the Abdulqadir Al-Qublawi Omar Alwandi, head of the Olympic Committee’s executive office. He is also chairman of the Libyan Swimming Federation.
In July, just before the London Olympics, Elalem was forced from his car  at gunpoint by unknown armed men and held for a week before being released.  At the time, there were rumours that he had been abducted because of his links to the former regime.  He had served as deputy-president of the Olympic committee under Mohammed Qaddafi, the former dictator’s eldest son.
The kidnapping was denounced as “criminal” by the government and resulted in demonstrations in both Tripoli and Benghazi.
Three other officials have also been banned in the Commission’s latest announcement.  They are Abdulla Khalid Alnami, president of the General Chess Association, Juma Mohammad Hafeez M’Hamed, a member of the steering committee of the Rural Bank, and Mohammed Abdul Rahman Jibril general manager of the Sanitation Department in Ghat.
The later becomes the eighth official from Ghat to be disbarred.
