Libyan official: Gadhafi hiding in southern desert
TRIPOLI, Libya (AP) - October 10, 2011
Moussa al-Kouni, the Tuareg representative on the governing
National Transitional Council, says the fugitive leader could even
be taking advantage of the rough terrain to go back and forth
unnoticed across the border into Niger.
Al-Kouni produced no evidence during a news conference Monday.
But he claims Gadhafi sent his son Khamis to the area two months
before Tripoli fell to set up a radio station and make preparations
in case the regime had to flee.
There has been much speculation about Gadhafi's whereabouts and
some officials have alleged the Tuaregs are giving him shelter.
