Report: Islamist leader says Libya PM failed

The leader of Libya's Muslim Brotherhood political party said Saturday that the country's prime minister – who was briefly abducted by militia members earlier this week – has failed and needs to be replaced.

Mohammed Sawan, leader of Justice and Construction party, told The Associated Press in a telephone interview Saturday from Benghazi that the Libyan parliament is "seriously searching for an alternative" to Ali Zidan. Sawan said mismanagement by Zidan's government might have led to "irresponsible actions" by individuals, referring to Zidan's kidnapping. (AP)
