Libya to defy Hague and try Gaddafi’s son at home

LIBYA’S new leaders have said they will try Muammar Gaddafi’s son at home and not hand him over to the International Criminal Court, where he is charged with crimes against humanity.

The government also announced the capture of the toppled regime’s intelligence minister, who is also wanted by the court.

In one of several emerging complications, however, the former rebel faction that captured Saif al-Islam Gaddafi a day earlier is refusing to deliver him to national authorities in Tripoli, raising concern over whether he will get a proper trial and demonstrating the interim leaders’ weak hold over their fractured nation.
