Nakon višegodišnjeg međunarodnog pritiska i nakon postignutog sporazuma, po kom je svaka porodica 438 zaražene djece dobila kompenzaciju u iznosu od po milion dolara, vrhovni pravosudni organ Libije zamijenio je 17. jula smrtne kazne medicinarima za doživotni zatvor.
After years of international pressure and following a deal, under which each of the families of the 438 infected children received $1m in compensation, Libya's top legal body commuted the medics' death sentences to life in prison on July 17th.
