Niger hands Kadhafi son Saadi over to Libya: Tripoli

TRIPOLI: Niger has turned a son of the late dictator Moamer Kadhafi over to Libyan authorities, the Tripoli government said Thursday, as a government-allied militia released pictures of him in captivity.

The government said Saadi Kadhafi, who fled across the Sahara desert to Niger during the 2011 uprising that saw rebels capture and kill his father after ending his four-decade dictatorship, was in Libyan custody, promising to release more details at a later time.
