Assassination in Libya
Puts Country on Alert
BY the Assoeiuisd Press

CAIRO, Egypt, Oct. IA
Libyan Embassy spokesman said
today that a state Of emergency
has been proclaimed in his North
African country following the as
sassination last week of Ibrahim
Ell Shalhi, former minister for
palace affairs.
Cairo informants attributed
the killing to a feud between Ell
Shalhi and members Of the Lib
yam royal family, whose ambi-
tions they said the ex-minister
had blocked by welding his own
considerable influence with King
Idris.
A nephew of Queen Fatima, Ell
Sheriff Mohieddin El Sinousi,
was reported under arrest for the
shooting.
The embassy spokesman de-
MED rumors current here that
the king might leave the country
and that Crown Prince Mohamed
El Rida might take over his
duties. Idris is not planning to
leave Libya "at the present
time" the spokesman said.
He also denied that Libya is
under a state Of seige" and said
the country is quiet. He de-
scribed the state Of emergency as
merely a precautionary meas
ure."
