President Jacob Zuma has ordered the Treasury to freeze assets linked to Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi and his associates, a government official said on Friday.
"The process is under way and we are writing letters informing them that no money will be allowed to leave South Africa," foreign ministry spokesperson Clayson Monyela said without offering further details.

The statement said: "South Africa has openly condemned the loss of life and attacks on civilians and reported violations of human rights in Libya." -- Reuters
