Around 1,200 inmates have esaped from a jail in the Libyan city of Benghazi, following reported riots inside the prison while a political assassination triggered protests in the city.
According to a security official most of the escapees face serious charges, although 'some' had been recaptured.
The then-US ambassador and three other Americans were killed last year in Benghazi, one of the most unstable parts of post-revolution Libya.
Buildings associated with the Muslim Brotherhood were also attacked by protesters following the assassination of Abdelsalam al-Mismari, a prominent political activist.
