[TD="class: articleTitle"]Muammar Gaddafi killed in Sirte[/TD]

[TD="class: Tmp_hSpace10"][/TD]

[TD="class: DetailedSummary"]Abdul Hakim Belhaj, an NTC military chief, has confirmed that Muammar Gaddafi has died of his wounds after being captured near Sirte.
The body of the former Libyan leader was taken to a location which is being kept secret for security reasons, an NTC official said.
"Gaddafi's body is with our unit in a car and we are taking the body to a secret place for security reasons," Mohamed Abdel Kafi, an NTC official in the city of Misrata, told Reuters.
Earlier, Jamal abu-Shaalah, a field commander of NTC, told Al Jazeera that the toppled leader had been caught.
"He's captured. He's wounded in both legs ... He's been taken away by ambulance," Abdel Majid, a senior NTC military official said.
A photograph taken on a mobile phone appeared to show Gaddafi heavily bloodied, but it was not possible to confirm the authenticity of the picture.
The news came shortly after the NTC captured Sirte , Gaddafi's hometown, after weeks of fighting.
Former spokesman captured
Another NTC commander said that Moussa Ibrahim, former spokesman for Gaddafi's fallen government, was captured near Sirte.
Abdul Hakim Al Jalil, commander of the 11th brigade, also said he had seen the body of the chief of Gaddafi's armed forces, Abu Bakr Younus Jabr.
"I've seen him with my own eyes," he said and showed Reuters a picture of Jabr's body.
"Moussa Ibrahim was also captured and both of them were transferred to [our] operations room."
NATO and the US state department said they could not confirm any reports. Meanwhile in Benghazi, crowds gathered in the streets to start celebrating the reports of Gaddafi's death.[/TD]

SIRTE, Libya | Thu Oct 20, 2011 9:18am EDT

(Reuters) - Former Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi died of wounds suffered on Thursday as fighters battling to complete an eight-month-old uprising against his rule overran his hometown Sirte, Libya's interim rulers said.
His killing, which came swiftly after his capture near Sirte, is the most dramatic single development in the Arab Spring revolts that have unseated rulers in Egypt and Tunisia and threatened the grip on power of the leaders of Syria and Yemen.
"He (Gaddafi) was also hit in his head," National Transitional Council official Abdel Majid Mlegta told Reuters. "There was a lot of firing against his group and he died."
Mlegta told Reuters earlier that Gaddafi, who was in his late 60s, was captured and wounded in both legs at dawn on Thursday as he tried to flee in a convoy which NATO warplanes attacked. He said he had been taken away by an ambulance.
There was no independent confirmation of his remarks.
An anti-Gaddafi fighter said Gaddafi had been found hiding in a hole in the ground and had said "Don't shoot, don't shoot" to the men who grabbed him.
His capture followed within minutes of the fall of Sirte, a development that extinguished the last significant resistance by forces loyal to the deposed leader.
The capture of Sirte and the death of Gaddafi means Libya's ruling NTC should now begin the task of forging a new democratic system which it had said it would get under way after the city, built as a showpiece for Gaddafi's rule, had fallen.
Gaddafi, wanted by the International Criminal Court on charges of ordering the killing of civilians, was toppled by rebel forces on August 23 after 42 years of one-man rule over the oil-producing North African state.
NTC fighters hoisted the red, black and green national flag above a large utilities building in the center of a newly-captured Sirte neighborhood and celebratory gunfire broke out among their ecstatic and relieved comrades.
Hundreds of NTC troops had surrounded the Mediterranean coastal town for weeks in a chaotic struggle that killed and wounded scores of the besieging forces and an unknown number of defenders.
NTC fighters said there were a large number of corpses inside the last redoubts of the Gaddafi troops. It was not immediately possible to verify that information.

DEVELOPING: Libyan strongman Muammar Qaddafi is dead, according to a spokesman for the Transitional National Council.
Qaddafi died of wounds suffered during his capture near his hometown of Sirte on Thursday, Reuters and Sky News reported. U.S. officials say they are working to confirm the TNC's claim.

"Qaddafi is dead. He is absolutely dead ... he was shot in both legs and in the head. The body will be arriving in Misrata soon," media spokesman Abdullah Berrassali told Sky News.

The Transitional National Council's UK spokesman, Mahmoud Nacua, warned that there was "not enough information" to confirm Qaddafi's capture, and a former TNC spokesman in Britain, Guma al Gamati told Sky News that "this is not confirmed."

Sirte, Qaddafi's hometown and the last bastion of his supporters, was the last holdout against TNC forces. The town's capture, which both military officials and new regime political sources said was expected later Thursday, would pave the way for the TNC to officially take control of Libya and move its headquarters away from its Benghazi stronghold in the east to the capital, Tripoli.

White House officials are monitoring the developing reports, but are unable to confirm the status of the former Libyan leader.
Libyan fighters captured Sirte Thursday, two months after the fall of Tripoli.

Reports of Qaddafi's capture follow Secretary of State Hillary Rodham Clinton's visit to Libya Tuesday. She said in Tripoli that she hoped Qaddafi would be captured or killed.

Spokeswoman Victoria Nuland said Thursday the State Department has been unable to confirm the reports about Qaddafi.
The Associated Press contributed to this report.

Unasapoti kilichotokea kwa Gaddafi? Poor Africa killing each other. Hatuwezi fika mbali kwa kuwategemea nchi za magharibi hata siku moja.

Sitashangaa na hapa tukipewa longolongo za mwili wake kuzikwa kwenye undisclosed location ili kuzuia kaburi lake lisije kuwa shrine la loyalists wake.

Kabla ya kuongelea kaburi lake tuambie kwanza kama umeamini kauawa.

All in All, There are many lives that has been lost. There are many lives also being lost in Syria and Yemen now. The fight is yet far from over since most of the Libyans are equipped with weapons. It will be a long process to dis-arm. We will see a lot of killing for sometimes and Libya will never be the same again. It will not be calmn and at the same time they have to have clear democratic ways of putting govt in place including maximum period for one to seek re-election. We pray that they will not also distablise the neighboring countries as well.

 

[Obi]

hivi kwani alistahili kifo? ????

Hakustahili hata kupinduliwa licha ya kifo. Tatizo kubwa la Africa ni kutegemea nchi za Magharibi. Sijui tutaondokana lini na kasumba hii

 

[Nyani Ngabu]

Kabla ya kuongelea kaburi lake tuambie kwanza kama umeamini kauawa.

Hili siyo suala la imani. Ni suala la ukweli ama uongo. Mpaka sasa sijajua kama ni kweli kafa au la!

Wewe unaamini kafa au unajua kuwa kafa?

If only CCM and gov't leaders can really take note. You MUST have the legitimate of the people to govern and lead them.

The current crop of rulers and puppets in the government once more will turn deaf ears and blind eyes to this obvious lesson.
