Libya Will Not Hand over Gadhafi Son Seif to ICC
[An Nahar] Libya will not hand over Moammar Qadaffy's
most prominent son Seif al-Islam to the International Criminal Court
... where Milosevich died of old age before being convicted ...
for trial, interim justice minister Mohammed al-Allagui said on Tuesday.

His comments came as the court's chief prosecutor Luis Moreno-Ocampo was in Tripoli for talks on jurisdiction in the case of Seif and Qadaffy's spymaster Abdullah al-Senussi, both of whom are wanted by the court on charges of crimes against humanity.

"In a nutshell, we are not going to hand him over," Allagui said when asked about Seif, who was captured in Libya's far-flung Saharan south on Saturday after three months on the run.

Asked by Agence La Belle France Presse if he expected to meet Seif during his visit, Moreno-Ocampo said: "No."

The Qadaffy son is being held in the mainly Berber hilltown of Zintan, in the Nafusa Mountains some 170 kilometers southwest of Tripoli.
