Nach dem Umbruch in Libyen kam Saif al-Islam in Haft. Er verschwand jahrelang und meldete sich erst 2021 mit großen politischen Ambitionen zurück. Nun wird er in seiner Residenz getötet.

The 53-year-old, who was once widely seen as the second most powerful person in Libya, was killed on Tuesday according to Libyan media.

Saif al-Islam Gaddafi had been considered the number two in Libya before the 2011 death of his father, Muammar Gaddafi.
