Moussa Ibrahim

Moussa Ibrahim (* 1974 , Arabic موسى إبراهيم) is a Libyan politician and former spokesman for the Libyan Foreign Ministry. During the Libyan civil war , he was minister of information in the government of Muammar al-Gaddafi and even after the takeover of Tripoli by the National Transitional Council , he still acted as spokesman for Gaddafi.

It is unknown where he has been since then. Reports of the arrests of Moussa Ibrahim on September 30, 2011, October 20, 2011 and October 22, 2011 were soon denied by the National Transitional Council. On October 20, 2012, his arrest in Tarhuna , 65 km south of Tripoli, was announced. But this message was also later denied.

On January 12, 2015, Ibrahim was hooked up by video at a conference of the London Tricontinental Anti-Imperialist Platform on the Libyan War 2011. This was his first public appearance after the end of Gaddafi's rule.

Private

Moussa Ibrahim spent several years of his education in the UK and was most recently enrolled in a doctoral program at the University of Exeter . He is married to Julia Ramelow, a German, and has a son with her.
