Musa Al-Koni, a member of the Presidential Council (PC), has been relocated to Germany after having a heart attack recently.
Press reports claim that on Friday night, Al-Koni was transported by air ambulance from Tripoli‘s Mitiga International Airport. Last week Thursday, the PC member underwent a heart catheterisation procedure at a nearby clinic.
According to a source close to the Presidential Council, Al-Koni’s health is steady and he is steadily getting better, dispelling any claims to the contrary.
After arriving back in Tunisia after the border cooperation conference between Libya and the Sahel nations, Al-Koni encountered a serious health condition on Thursday evening.
Musa Al-Koni is a Libyan politician and diplomat. He served as the deputy prime minister of Libya’s Government of National Accord from March 2016 to January 2, 2017. He represented southern Libya, where he is from. He was also one of the vice presidents of the Presidential Council until his resignation.
From 2005 until around the time of the 2011 civil war, Al-Koni served as the consul general of Libya in Mali. He was accused by the Malian government of trying to recruit Tuareg mercenaries to fight for Gaddafi.
