A court in Libya has sentenced one of the sons of
former Libyan dictator, Muammar Gaddafi, Saif
al-Islam Gaddafi and eight others to death over
war crimes committed during the 2011 revolution.
Saif al-Islam and others were standing trial for
suppressing protests during the political uprising
in Libya in 2011 after Libyans revolted against the
government of Ghadaffi who was killed in October
2011. Saif al-Islam was not present in court and
gave evidence via video link. He is being held by
a former rebel group from the town of Zintan that
have refused to release him.
