Qaddafi's Son to Turn Himself In
Third son of Muammar Qaddafi tells the NTC he's ready to join the revolution
Saadi Qaddafi, Muammar's third son, the one who was financing a Hollywood production company, has told the National Transitional Council he is willing to surrender and join the revolution, al-Jazeera is reporting. James Bays, their correspondant in Tripoli, spoke to Abdelhakim Belhaj, a military commander with the NTC, who said this:
"We have the intelligence apparatus that belongs to the revolutionaries that allows us to gather information to find Gaddafi and his close aids that represent the pillars of the regime. We know for sure where some of them are, and we have unconfirmed reports on where Gaddafi is.
Today I had a telephone conversation with Gaddafi’s son, Saadi, where he asked to be part of the revolution, and to get guarantees to come back to his people and the capital, Tripoli. He hinted to us his whereabouts, and we will be in contact with him to follow up on this matter.”
Saadi Qaddafi was reportedly arrested by the NTC twice before, and now he's allegedly turning himself in. As we've noted before, it's best to take these reports with a grain of salt. Muammar Qaddafi fled to Algeria with two of his other sons, and his daughter, who gave birth to a baby girl.
