Ali Zeidan, Libyan Prime Minister has accused a "political party" of organizing his brief abduction by gunmen on Thursday.
According to News24, witnesses said Zeidan was held at a police station south of the capital, and that his captors released him after armed residents surrounded the building and demanded he be let go.
"I hope this problem will be resolved with reason and wisdom" and without any "escalation", Zeidan later said in comments broadcast by state television as he left a cabinet meeting shortly after his release.
It's a political party which wants to overthrow the government by any means"
"In the coming days I will give more information on who this political party is that organised my kidnapping," Zeidan added.
The Operations Cell of Libyan Revolutionaries, former rebels who had roundly denounced Liby's abduction and blamed Zeidan's government for it, said it had "arrested" the premier under orders from the public prosecutor.
