Gaddafi’s son escapes from custody
Libyan dictator Muammar Gaddafi’s eldest son Muhammad has escaped from the custody of opposition fighters with the help of Gaddafi loyalists.
According to Al-Jazeera TV network, the pro-Gaddafi forces stormed the house where Muhammad was held in Tripoli on Monday and set him free after clashing with the guards.
He had been arrested at his house during an interview with Al-Jazeera.
Muhammad’s brother Saif al-Islam was also captured on Sunday, and their third brother, Saadi Gaddafi, was caught by the revolutionary forces on Monday afternoon.
Opposition fighters have not managed to find Gaddafi yet and his exact whereabouts are still unknown.
There are unconfirmed reports that he has fled from the country, but other reports say he left the capital after opposition fighters seized control of almost all of the city and is hiding in a bunker outside Tripoli.
There are also reports claiming that Gaddafi has been seen at a hospital near Tajura, which is a suburb of Tripoli.
A diplomatic source said Gaddafi may still be in his Bab al-Aziziyah compound in southern Tripoli, adding that Gaddafi has many bunkers there where he could hide from the revolutionary fighters.
