TRIPOLI Libyan leader Moamer Kadhafi announced Monday his country had launched an inquiry into more than six weeks of violence between Libyans and black African immigrants which he claimed is orchestrated by the "enemies" of African unity, AFP said.
The violence, which began in late August, is reported to have claimed more than 130 lives. Kadhafi's comments Monday were his first public statement on attacks by Libyan youths on immigrant blacks from countries such as Sudan, Nigeria, Ghana and Chad working in the oil-rich Muslim state.
