Musa Sadr’s family call on Russia to press Libya for Shia cleric’s fate

Tehran, IRNA – The family of Imam Musa al-Sadr, an Iranian-Lebanese Shia Muslim cleric and politician and the founder of the Amal Movement, has called on Russia to impose pressure on Libya to determine the fate of the distinguished Islamic figure.

Imam Musa al-Sadr went missing in Libya with two companions more than four decades ago.

Sadr’s family during the last day of their visit to Moscow, held a meeting with the Russian president’s special representative for Middle East and Africa Affairs, Mikhail Bogdanov, who also serves as deputy foreign minister.

In the meeting, the family asked Bogdanov to use Russia’s influence to pressure the Libyan government to cooperate in the high-profile case of Sadr and his two companions.

The family was reported to have demanded Moscow’s pressure on Tripoli to implement the 2014 judicial memorandum and announce the results of the case of the disappearance of Imam Musa al-Sadr, the founder of Lebanon’s Amal Movement.
