Court refers Gadhafi鈥檚 son to trial over 2011 uprising
Print Edition
A Libyan court yesterday referred Moammar Gadhafi’s son and more than 30 others to trial before a higher tribunal on charges ranging from murder to treason during the 2011 uprising, a senior prosecutor said.
Prosecutor Al-Seddik al-Sur said the court also decided to appoint defense lawyers for Gadhafi’s son, Seif al-Islam, and the late dictator’s intelligence chief, Abdullah al-Senoussi. He did not announce a date for the trial before the Criminal Court.
Al-Senoussi and al-Baghdadi al-Mahmoudi, Gadhafi’s last prime minister, were among about 10 of the 38 Gadhafi-era officials to attend the hearing, held under tight security in the Libyan capital, Tripoli.
Seif al-Islam, held by a militia group that captured him as he attempted to flee to neighboring Niger in 2011, was not present.
Gadhafi, killed by the rebels, was in power for more than 40 years.
Underscoring Libya’s lawlessness since the ouster of the Gadhafi regime, gunmen shot dead an air force colonel yesterday as he left his home in Benghazi, the birthplace of the 2011 revolt.
It was the latest in a spate of assassinations in Benghazi recently. The killings are blamed on militiamen who fought against Gadhafi’s forces but now operate outside state control.
