Amnesty International warns Libya's leaders of repeating Moammar Gadhafi's mistakes Ahead of Saturday's election. Much is at stake in that vote, said Amnesty International, which issued a scathing report Thursday on widespread Libyan lawlessness, focusing on armed militias operating above the law. The report documented arbitrary arrests, detention, torture and impunity for unlawful killings. It said Amnesty staffers visited Libya in May and June and found many militias refusing to disarm and that the government has only been able to dismantle a handful of the armed groups. Libyan authorities confirmed the completion of preparations for elections of the National Congress (Parliament), scheduled for this Saturday, and will make more than 2 million people cast their ballots to choose 200 members of the National Congress, which will form a Committee to draft the Constitution and choose an interim Government run the country, in the first election in Libya for four decades.
