Libyan militias to be disbanded

Libyan militias to be disbanded

The interim Libyan leader has vowed to disband all illegal militias in the aftermath of the US ambassador's death this month. Mohammed Magarief said that all camps and militias not under the authority of the government would disband.

US Ambassador Christopher Stevens and three others Americans died during an attack on the city's US consulate on 11 September, which coincided with protests over an anti-Islam video produced in the United States.

One powerful militia in eastern Libya has already announced it will disband and leave its bases near Benghazi.

Meanwhile, schools and businesses are closed and transportation has been disrupted across Bangladesh as hard-line Islamic groups protesting the anti-Islam video enforced a general strike.

Thousands of security officials have been deployed in the capital, Dhaka, to try to avert violence.
