The Head of the Civil Status Department Mohammed Beltamer denied Thursday the news regarding the seizure of 890 thousand fake national ID numbers, expressing his surprise of some media outlets of disseminating such unfounded statements.

Beltamer told the Libya Observer that the department has formed a committee to investigate all the data and will submit its final report to the department on completion.

Beltamer called on the media to be more accurate in the information it publishes, noting that such news will only lead to more chaos, as he put it.
