Grand Mufti Sadek al-Ghariani, who is considered to be Libya’s top religious authority, has said that the importation of "overly racy lingerie and undergarments" should be banned.
In a letter sent to the office of the prime minister, who presumably has more pressing matters on his mind at the moment, he said these undergarments "contradict the virtue of Islamic modesty".
According to Egypt’s al-Wafd newspaper, women’s underwear items in Libya are usually imported.
