Libya to try Gaddafi’s son

Libya will put deposed dictator Muammar Gaddafi’s son on trial, defying a demand by the International Criminal Court, the Libyan representative to the Hague court said yesterday.

Ahmed al-Jehani said the trial of Seif al-Islam Gaddafi will begin next month.

One possible venue is Zintan, a town in the western mountains, where he is being held.
