Civil Registry Authority head Bettamer refutes existence of large numbers of forged National ID NumbersBy Sami Zaptia. Tripoli, 18 January 2022:Mohamed Bettamer, the head of Libya’s Civil Registry Authority (CRA) denied the existence of large numbers of forged National ID Numbers. Various HoR members leaked the content of the report, revealing that there were between 250,000 to 700,000 fake National ID numbers. Bettamer’s rebuttal of the Intelligence Service’s claim of the existence of large-scale National ID Number forgeries raises questions over the credibility of both entities. He had denied that the CRA has issued National ID Numbers to foreigners or mercenaries.
