Saadi Gadhafi, one of Moammar Gadhafi's sons, tried to travel secretly to Mexico with false documents, Mexico's interior minister Alejandro Poire said Wednesday. Three people have been implicated in the plot - a Canadian, a Dane and a Mexican, said the minister.Saadi Gadhafi had offered to mediate an end to the war with the rebels in Libya months ago, after his father's troops lost control of Tripoli, but later seemed to change his mind.
He was last known to be in Niger. Niger's President Mahamadou Issoufou had reaffirmed his country's decision to grant asylum to Saadi, saying he should be treated just like other "Libyan refugees." Libya's National Transitional Council has denounced that stance.
