He was accused of crimes committed against protesters
Saadi Qadhafi, a son of Libya’s late dictator Muammar Qadhafi who was overthrown and killed in a 2011 uprising, has been freed from jail, said the interim government. Mr. Saadi — the strongman’s third son, now aged 47 — was known for his playboy lifestyle and briefly played as a professional footballer in Italy. “Saadi Muammar Qadhafi has been freed from prison,” following on from a court ruling several years ago, a Justice Ministry source said late on Sunday in comments confirmed by the Government of National Unity.More Related News
