Video footage of what are believed to be South African-made sniper rifles being used in Libya has been handed to the Public Protector for further investigation.
The footage, which was reportedly shot from a cellphone camera in the city of Misrata, shows a rebel fighter holding a rifle that was allegedly confiscated from a government soldier.
The Democratic Alliance says the video serves as proof that South Africa exported the rifles to Libya as part of a R68.9 million arms deal.
