Gaddafi indicted over missing cleric As-Sadr
By: Karim Tellawi
BEIRUT, Lebanon: An arrest warrant for the Libyan leader Muammar
Gaddafi have been issued by a Lebanese court over the disappearance of
a senior cleric Ayatullah Mussa As-Sadr and his two companions while
in Libya 30 years ago.
Lebanese prosecutors accuse Gaddafi and other senior Libyan officials
of ordering the kidnapping and killing of Imam Mussa as-Sadr and his
two companions.
Imam Mussa Sadr founded Lebanon's opposition Amal movement, which
is now led by parliament speaker Nabih Berri, and was a respected
political leader and Shiite Islamic scholar in Lebanon.
Libya has denied involvement in the disappearance of the cleric and
his two companions and says that the three left the Libya for Italy on
August 31, 1978 after their brief stay in Tripoli.
The arrest warrant against Gaddafi was issued on the basis of a
Lebanese law that allows indictment of any suspect who fail to respond
to an official summons. Though the charges carry the death penalty, it
is highly very unlikely that Gaddafi will ever stand trial in Lebanon.
