Sydney-Middle East Times Int'l: The reports said he was killed by four individuals, though no further details were immediately available. Abdullah Othman, Saif al-Islam’s political adviser, confirmed the death in a brief post on Facebook, without specifying the circumstances or identifying those responsible.
His French lawyer, Marcel Ceccaldi, told the news agency AFP that the identity of the assailants remained unkown:
"For now, we don't know" who was behind the killing, Ceccaldi said, adding that he was told by one of Seif al-Islam's close associates about ten days ago "that there were problems with his security".
Saif al-Islam Gaddafi’s political team issued an official statement mourning his death, saying arrangements were underway to recover his body. |
