53. Phone call intercepted between Gaddafi sons Mutasim in Sirte and Saif in Bani Walid
The Guardian reports:


Colonel Ahmed Bani, the NTC military spokesman, revealed that Libyan forces had intercepted a telephone conversation between Gaddafi's sons Mutasim, his national security adviser, organising the fighting inside Sirte, and Saif al-Islam, in Bani Walid south of Tripoli, where there is a stalemate that has exposed rifts and inefficiency in rebel ranks.

It was the first official confirmation of the location of the two fugitive Gaddafi brothers. Bani also told the Guardian that on Saturday NTC forces had raided a remote area called Targan, south of Sabha, after receiving a tipoff that Gaddafi himself was there, but found no trace of him.
