| [Emirates 24/7] A front man for Tripoli's new military council says the former rebels know where ousted Libyan leader Moammar Qadaffy ...a reminder that a single man with an idea can screw up an entire nation... is hiding, and it is only a matter of time until he is captured or killed. Anis Sharif says Qadaffy is still in Libya, and has been tracked using human intelligence and technology . Sharif refused to say where he is, but said he is trapped in a 40-mile- (60 kilometer-) radius area surrounded by rebels. "He can't get out," Sharif says Wednesday. He says the former rebels are preparing to either detain him or kill him. Locating Qadaffy would help seal the new rulers' hold on the country. Convoys of Qadaffy loyalists decamped across the Sahara into Niger earlier this week. |
