Saif al Islam, Colonel Gaddafi’s
son, has been released from prison by rebels in western Libya, in the spirit of
Ramadan.
He was freed at the weekend after
being held by an armed group controlling the town of Zintan since November
2011.
The Abu Bakr al-Sadiq Brigade
said Saif al Islam was released on “the 14th day of the month of Ramadan” under
an amnesty agreed by the parliament based in the east.
Sky News reports that the late
dictator’s son is now with his relatives in the city of Al-Bayda, and will make
a speech to the nation later.
Saif, is the most high profile of
Gaddafi’s eight children, and was sentenced to death by a court in Tripoli two
years ago.
He, however, remains on the
wanted list of the International Criminal Court for crimes against humanity.
Colonel Gaddafi was captured and
killed in October 2011 after he was found hiding near the city of Sirte.

ReplyDeleteSaif al-Islam Gaddafi, son of former Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi has been released from prison if the information is true by the militia. The popular experienced Saif al-Islam Gaddafi is the only smart strong leader that can bring the Lybia's tribes altogether for democratic Arab reforms and in the political and economic field with stability of the country crisis for a better future. The horrible barbaric murder of Gaddafi supported by US and NATO allies bring to the destruction of Libya, the spreading of terrorists and the refugee's crisis across the world.
