Ethnic group demands say in new Libyan government (AP)

TRIPOLI, Libya ? Hundreds of people have demonstrated in Tripoli to demand representation in government for the Amazigh, an ethnic minority whose culture was suppressed during the decades of Moammar Gadhafi's rule.

The Amazigh said they're angry that they are not part of a transitional government sworn in Thursday.

The issue reflects the widely divergent tribal makeup of Libya and the challenges faced by the new rulers in trying to forge a government accepted by all the factions.

About 400 people from the community, descendants of the region's indigenous Berbers, demonstrated outside the office of the prime minister on Sunday, demanding a meeting with him.

Some Amazigh elders were allowed to enter the office of Prime Minister Abdurrahim el-Keib. It's not clear what resulted from their meeting.
