The Libyan group, Rabitat Ansar al-Nizam al-Jamahiri, has expressed concern over the current situation in Libya, citing widespread poverty and a negative stance from various tribes and cities towards the killing of Seif al-Islam, son of former leader Muammar Gaddafi. In a statement, the group emphasized its commitment to uncovering the truth behind Seif al-Islam's death. The group also referenced a recent gathering in the city of Beni Walid, which honored Seif al-Islam as a national martyr.

Rabitat Ansar al-Nizam al-Jamahiri strongly rejected what it termed as "suspicious moves" by some individuals seeking to lead supporters of Gaddafi's ideology for personal and tribal gains. The group accused these individuals of using Gaddafi's name and legacy to further their own interests before the facts surrounding Seif al-Islam's killing are fully revealed. The group warned that such actions could exacerbate divisions and undermine the resistance movement.

The group, which supports Gaddafi's ideology, urged the family of Seif al-Islam to expedite the process of identifying those responsible for his death and to prevent individuals from exploiting national issues for personal gain. Rabitat Ansar al-Nizam al-Jamahiri emphasized the need for national reconciliation and the completion of Seif al-Islam's project to rebuild the country.

According to the group, the recent gathering in Beni Walid was a legitimate expression of support for Gaddafi's ideology and a tribute to Seif al-Islam. However, the group distinguished between this gathering and the "suspicious moves" by other individuals seeking to capitalize on Gaddafi's legacy for personal gain.

The killing of Seif al-Islam remains a contentious issue in Libya, with many questions still unanswered. Rabitat Ansar al-Nizam al-Jamahiri's statement reflects the ongoing tensions and divisions within the country, particularly among supporters of Gaddafi's ideology.

The group's warning against "suspicious moves" suggests that there are concerns about potential power struggles or manipulation of Gaddafi's legacy by various factions. Rabitat Ansar al-Nizam al-Jamahiri's emphasis on national reconciliation and the completion of Seif al-Islam's project highlights the need for a unified approach to addressing Libya's challenges.

The situation in Libya remains complex, with various groups and factions vying for influence. Rabitat Ansar al-Nizam al-Jamahiri's statement provides insight into the perspectives of Gaddafi supporters and the ongoing debates surrounding Seif al-Islam's killing and the country's future.
