Saif al-Islam Gaddafi, the son of Libya’s late longtime ruler Muammar Gaddafi, was killed on Tuesday by a “four-man commando” in his home in western Libya´s Zintan, his French lawyer, Marcel Ceccaldi, told AFP. “For now, we don’t know” who was behind the killing, Ceccaldi said, adding that he was told by one of Saif’s close associates about ten days ago “that there were problems with his security.” Saif went from his ather’s heir apparent to a decade of captivity and obscurity in a remote hill town before launching a presidential bid that helped derail an attempted election.
