Jus Cogens: G.S.D.T. vs Libyan Investment Authority
These decisions relate to the investigation opened on 10 September 2015 as a result of the civil party complaint lodged by Global Sustainable Development Trust ("GSDT"), which is trying to obtain payment for a debt it claims against the Libyan State and to which the LIA is unrelated.
The LIA has maintained throughout that the arrest warrants were politically motivated and is pleased that justice has now been served with this latest legal ruling.
The LIA and its C.E.O. are represented by Mr Kalilou Fadiga (Harding's Mitchell Sollicitors), Mr Christophe Marchand and Mr Stéphane Jans (JusCogens law firm) and Mr Anthony Rizzo (Akalex).
Notes to Editors:
