Reports Gadaffi\'s youngest son killed following capture

Khamis is the seventh and youngest son of Libyan slain strongman Muammar Gadaffi Reports have emerged that Gadaffi’s youngest son Khamis Gadaffi has died after being captured. The seventh and youngest son of the Libyan slain strongman Muammar Gadaffi has been declared dead after his capture on Saturday, sources have revealed.
Khamis Gadaffi, who was a military commander in charge of the Khamis Brigade of the Libyan Army, was severely wounded when arrested, according to the sources.
Hiteen Brigade, belonging to the Military Revolutionary Council in the northwestern city of Misrata, arrested Gadaffi’s son, exactly a year after the dictator's death, the sources added.
However, Mohammed Maqrif, Head of the Libyan National Congress, told reporters that Gadaffi’s son was killed during the Bani Walid clashes on Saturday.
There were conflicting reports about Gadaffi’s son whereabouts, some believed he had fled to Niger.
In the same day, Libyan militias captured Gaddafi’s former spokesman, while leader Mohammed Magarief said some areas of the country still needed to be fully “liberated.”
Despite Libya being declared “liberated” a few days after Gadaffi’s capture and elections under new rulers, the country continues to struggle with an influx of weapons.
Moussa Ibrahim, who was the mouthpiece of the Gadaffi regime during last year’s war, was caught in the town of Tarhouna, 70 km (40 miles) south of Tripoli.
“Moussa Ibrahim has been arrested by forces belonging to the Libyan government in the town of Tarhouna and he is being transferred to Tripoli to begin interrogation,” a statement from the prime minister’s office said.
The government has previously made false claims regarding the capture of Gadaffi loyalists, and produced no photographs on Saturday showing Ibrahim in detention.
His whereabouts have been unknown since the fall of the capital in August 2011. The government claimed to have caught him last October but he called Reuters to deny the report.
Fluent in English, Ibrahim would hold regular press conferences in the luxury Tripoli hotel were journalists stayed during last year’s war.
Former revolutionary fighters have maintained Gadaffi loyalists have used the town of Bani Walid as a safe haven, protected by the large Warfala tribe which has historically been loyal to Gadaffi’s tribe.
