Libya's Grand Mufti, Sheikh Sadiq Al-Ghariani, has accused the former leadership of the High Council of State (HCS) of conspiring with Aguila Saleh -the Haftar-aligned Speaker of Parliament- and collaborating with Egyptian intelligence services.
In his weekly program on the Tanasuh TV channel, the Mufti made a reference to the HCS former president, Khaled Al-Mishri, labelling him as "unsuccessful" and censuring his actions were harmful to the nation.
In a recent address, Sheikh Al-Ghariani expressed the view that both the HCS and the House of Representatives (HoR) have lost their legitimacy.
However, he acknowledged the current leadership's efforts to counteract foreign intelligence interference.
The Mufti also questioned the validity of votes cast by certain members for the previous leadership, arguing that their votes should be invalidated according to council regulations due to their employment outside the council.
