Contrary to the reports that Saif al-Islam, a son of the
late Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi, has been freed from prison. Military
sources have revealed that he remains in the prison in western Libya where he
has been held since the 2011 uprising that toppled his father.
Since his father's downfall, Saif has been held in Zintan, a
mountainous western region, by one of the factions that began contending for
power after Gaddafi was killed in 2011 and have now split the country into
warring fiefdoms.
"We deny that Saif Islam has been released," the
Zintan military source told Reuters.
