Lt Col Sweiry was working in the military's data department.
A health official said another soldier, a member of the commandos, was shot by unidentified assailants yesterday also in Benghazi.
Much of Libya is experiencing a security vacuum but attacks against the military and security forces are particularly common in Benghazi, a stronghold of militias with roots in anti-Gaddafi rebel brigades.
