| 109. Some of Saif's comments to the press: |
|
AJE posted these snippets from AFP and Reuters on its live blog: Saif al Islam, the son of Libya leader Muammar Gaddafi who rebels and the International Criminal Court had been arrested, arrived in the early hours of Tuesday at the Tripoli hotel where foreign reporters have been staying, reports Reuters. BBC correspondent Matthew Price said Saif told another journalist, when asked if his father was safe and well in Tripoli, "Of course."According to AFP, Saif al-Islam told reporters: Tripoli is under our control. Everyone should rest assured. All is well in Tripoli.
http://blogs.aljazeera.net/liveblog/libya-aug-23-2011-0... Saif al-Islam Gaddafi: I am here to disperse the rumours ... This is a war of technology and electronics to cause chaos and terror in Libya. They also brought in armed gangs by sea and by road.
He was referring to a text message sent to mobile phone subscribers in Tripoli on Monday congratulating them on the fall of Muammar Gaddafi. Saif also said he did not care about an arrest warrant issued by the International Criminal Court in The Hague seeking him and his father for crimes against humanity. - Reuters http://blogs.aljazeera.net/liveblog/libya-aug-23-2011-0...
