Gaddafi's son rallies regime forces
The son and heir apparent of Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi, Saif al-Islam, resurfaced free and defiant early today a day after rebels claimed to have captured him, boasting in a bizarre reappearance that his father’s loyalists still control parts of Tripoli and would crush the rebellion.
Saif al-Islam’s sudden – even surreal – arrival at a Tripoli hotel where foreign journalists are staying threw the situation in the capital into confusion.
