Muammar Gaddafi

Lindsey Hilsum blogs on the surrender of Abdullah Senussi, the most feared enforcer of Colonel Gaddafi’s regime.

This is the Zintan’s chance to redeem themselves. If they treat Saif al Gaddafi humanely – in contrast to how the Misrata brigades treated his father when they captured him – it will boost their image and that of the new Libyan authorities.

The arrest of Muammar Gaddafi’s son and heir apparent Saif al-Islam in the southern desert is a chance for the Zintan fighters to redeem themselves, writes International Editor Lindsey Hilsum.

MI6 had struck up such a budding relationship with Libyan Intelligence in the preceding years that when they wanted to kill our people earlier this year, we seem to have known about it. Which illustrates a point the spooks often like to make: that it is in Britain’s national interests to do business with people we don’t like.

The International Criminal Court (ICC) prosecutor says he has had “informal contact” with Libyan fugitive Saif Gaddafi over his surrender to the war crimes court.

Millions are expected to party through the night as Libya celebrates the official end of the war against Colonel Gaddafi’s regime.

“That man is a hero – whoever he is”, said the man from the National Transitional Council. “There is no question of prosecuting anyone even if it was a deliberate assassination”, said his colleague. The two men were explaining how Libya is answering the call to explain what happened to Colonel Gaddafi as best it can.

Gaddafi’s body is reportedly set to be handed over to relatives as Libya looks forward to its first elections for more than 40 years.

I’ve spent much of today with the Al Ghiran brigade, the fighters from Misrata who caught Muammar Gaddafi on Thursday. They are proud of themselves, writes Lindsey Hilsum.

The death of one of the world’s worst tyrants on Thursday made it impossible for me to report that we are now three months on since the UN declared a famine in southern Somalia, writes Jonathan Rugman.

The world reacts to the end of Colonel Gaddafi’s 42-year grip on Libya as the US warns of “difficult days ahead” following his death. Meanwhile, Gaddafi’s burial has been delayed.

As Colonel Gaddafi’s body lies in a fridge in Misrata, Channel 4 News International Editor Lindsey Hilsum meets the men who captured him hiding in a drainage pipe – which is now a symbol of new Libya.
