It was reported that Libyan Mad Dog Gaddafi was seized as he tried to flee in a convoy which was attacked by Nato. Earlier NTC official Abdel Majid had said: “He’s captured. He’s wounded in both legs. He’s been taken away by ambulance.”

Another official, Mohamed Leith, added Gaddafi had been captured in Sirte and was “seriously wounded” but still breathing. Despite these claims there has been no independent confirmation of the capture or his death.

The senior NTC military official previously claimed: “He’s captured. We have him now. He’s wounded in both legs … He’s been taken away by ambulance.” However, with previous claims the leader and members of his family had been arrested or killed later proven false, the news was greeted with some scepticism.

Libyan fighters had earlier overrun the last positions of Gaddafi loyalists holding out in his hometown Sirte. The final push to capture the remaining pro-Gaddafi positions began around 8 am and was over after about 90 minutes.

Just before the assault, about five carloads of loyalists tried to flee the enclave down the coastal highway but were killed by revolutionaries.

Gaddafi : It’s over

Unlike Iraq’s Saddam Hussein, Gaddafi had no well-organised political party that could form the basis of an insurgent leadership. However, regional and ethnic differences have already appeared among the ranks of the revolutionaries, possibly laying the foundation for civil strife.

Gaddafi issued several audio recordings trying to rally supporters. Libyan officials have previously said they believe he is hiding somewhere in the vast south-western desert near the borders with Niger and Algeria.
