Tripoli: The Central Bank of Libya said on Sunday it was "suspending all operations" after a bank official was abducted in the capital Tripoli, in a statement posted on social media.
Musab Msallem, head of information technology at the Central Bank, "was kidnapped by an unidentified group from his house this morning," said the statement.
The bank said it would "not resume operations" until Msallem is released, adding that other executives were also "threatened with abduction".
It called for an "end to these practices" and blamed "unlawful parties" that "threaten the safety of its employees and the continuity of the banking sector's work".
The bank provided no further details about the kidnapping.
