86 1- Basic Principles governing the Libyan Judicature The Libyan judicial system provides for a set of guarantees to ensure rights and freedoms: 1- Independence and impartiality of the Judiciary; 2- Ensuring right of litigation; 3- Gratuity of justice; 4- Separation of judicial bodies; 5- Multiplicity of litigation degrees; 6- Magistrate judge and multiple judges; 7- Publicity of sessions; These basic principles are correlated with human rights and we will address them more clearly as follows: 1- Independence and Impartiality of the Judiciary: The Great Green Human Rights Charter in the Era of the Masses cites in its ninth principle that "The Mass Society ensures independence of the Judiciary", similar to the stipulation in Article 31 of the Freedom Promotion Law no 20/1991 to the effect that judges are independent and not subject to any authority. While in office, they are not susceptible to any influence. Claims of otherwise or attempt to do so is a punishable crime pursuant to articles (274-276) of the Penal Code. Courts are not permitted to establish legal rules to become vested in the power to enact. In order to assert the judges' independence from the executive body that appoint them, the above mentioned Judicature Law has decided on a number of guarantees ensuring that judges are not liable to relief of office. It has also developed some provisions on their appointment, secondment, transfer, and discipline as well as the other remaining functional affairs since the Supreme Council of Judicial Bodies, composed of senior members of these bodies, is exclusively designated to perform the aforementioned functions.
