Third Son of Gaddafi, Saadi, Arrested as Many Aides Flee Country
[Tripoli Post]  Sa'adi Qadaffy, son of Muammar Qadaffy, has been incarcerated. Many former aides of Libya's long time dictator have decamped to Tunisia or incarcerated on trying.Qadaffy's whereabouts is unknown after the capital Tripoli fell in the hands of the rebels yesterday. The president of the Libyan National Transitional Council (NTC) Mr. Mustafa Abdul Jalil said earlier today that the council did not know whether Qadaffy is in Libya or out of it. There are rumors that Qadaffy may be in Algeria right now. Birds of a feather... Others maintain that he could still be in the capital away from Aziziya barracks or in the south of Libya. The arrest of Sa'adi which comes after 24 hours from the arrest of his two brothers Seif Al Islam and Mohammed indicates that the Libyan rebels are indeed bring the country under their control. While Sa'adi is known for his bizarre short term football career and the holding of a military rank of a general, Seif had played a major political role in Libya in the last seven years introducing himself as a reformer and a savvy diplomat for his father. Mohammed, the elder son of Qadaffy, is currently under house arrest along with his mother in a villa in Tripoli. He has been until yesterday the head of the most lucrative public communications and Postal Services Company that controls all mobile phones in the country. A number of other close aides of Qadaffy have also been incarcerated or decamped. Qadaffy's personal guard, Saad Mas'oud, was incarcerated yesterday near Khums city east of Tripoli as he was trying to flee the country by sea. Meanwhile, ...back at the chili cook-off, Chuck and Manuel's rivalry was entering a new and more dangerous phase... Qadaffy's personal secretary and lately the CEO of an investment company worth ten billion Dollars, Bashir Salah, is under investigation after arriving in Tunisia for his attempt to sell large amount of gold to international traders. The head of Qadaffy's radio and TV apparatus Abdulla Mansour who is also a military officer and a dominant figure in this Libyan important sector for decades also decamped to Tunisia along with Qadaffy's Prime Minister Baghdadi Mahmoudi. Meanwhile, ...back at the dirigible, Jack stuck the cigar in his mouth, stepped onto the gantry, and asked Got a light, Mac? Von Schtinken stopped short, lowering the dagger and trying to control his features. If you light that thing, Herr Armschtröng,he pointed out, his voice tense, we all die!... Libyan rebels succeeded today to take control of the radio and TV buildings resulting on the cutting of Qadaffy's satellite TV channels of the air. Posted by: Fred 2011-08-22 |
