Senior official says NTC knows fugitive former Libyan leader's whereabouts in southern desert, as Sirte fighting rages.[/B]
Libya's National Transitional Council says that Muammar Gaddafi, the country's toppled leader, is in the southern desert region of the country, and that it is only a matter of time before he is captured.
Abdul Hafiz Ghoga, the vice-chairman of the NTC, told Al Jazeera on Thursday that satellites have been tracking the former Libyan leader south of Sabha.
"We have confirmed reports that Gaddafi is in the southern Libyan desert. He's not staying in one place. He is moving around with a small convoy which consists of his closest aides and bodyguards," he said.
Ghoga added that the fighters' priority is currently to take full control of Sirte, Gaddafi's hometown and one of the last places still contested between the NTC and Gaddafi loyalists.
"Once the liberation of Sirte has been achieved – our fighters will track down Gaddafi himself."[/release]

Can't wait until they announce his capture.
They'll hang him from a tree
So much for staying in Tripoli

I'm with ksenior. What makes you think they'll want him alive?

So they can give him a trial, which will also show Qaddafi supporters that their leader is no longer in power.. Libya is going to be a moderate Islamic democracy not another dictatorship.
Announcing this would be stupid, maybe they're trying to oust him from hiding and get him on the run
[QUOTE=ksenior;32776398]They'll hang him from a tree[/QUOTE]
That would be very insulting for the tree
Also, iirc Mussolini got hanged upside down with his balled stuffed down his throat and got his body destroyed by a mob later on. I doubt the only thing they'll do to this guy is hanging him.
And as far as he is not found, even if he's announced dead but not shown as such, people will keep on looking for him just for the satisfaction of ending his life. And I understand them very well.
I hope they put him in jail and don't act like bloodlusted idiots.
This whole war would make an awesome movie.

The entire Arab revolutions that happened this year would make an awesome movie

Nope, if they find him he's dead, I find it very unlikely that someone would let a guy like Gaddafi live.

There is no guarantee they will have a democracy, the Arab states have never ever had democracy even after countless regime changes. It could easily slip into another dictatorship.
When they find him,the only Present he's going to get is a bullet through the face.

It's easy to call them bloodlusted idiots sitting in your nice house and democratic country that doesn't try to kill you when you protest, but try and see it from their perspective.

They are blood lusted idiots if they just kill Gaddafi on the spot.

It would say alot more about the point of the rebellion if they not only captured him alive, but tried him. It would also be more humiliating to Gadaffi to be captured alive.

The rebels probably don't care about meaningfulness and probably just want him dead by now.
