The case of a missing teenager who disappeared a few days ago came to an end after security services found his body trapped between some offshore rocks in the beach of Garabulli district east of Tripoli.

The security services confirmed that the 19-year old teenager was reported missing a few days ago. On Monday, his car was located near the Garabulli beach, the security services said.

An investigation team was sent at once to the area, and a dive team combed the shores for two consecutive days before they could retrieve the body from the sea due to extreme weather conditions.
