ALBAWABA - Libyan security authorities have detained a woman accused of shooting her husband to death in Tarhuna, southeast of the capital Tripoli.

The case has sparked widespread reactions across Libya, highlighting tensions related to domestic disputes and the legal implications surrounding polygamy.
