Kidnapped son of ex-Libyan leader handed to Lebanese security forces

Kidnapped son of former Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi was handed to the Lebanese security forces on Friday, the LBCI TV reported.

Earlier TV reports said Hannibal Gaddafi was kidnapped an armed group in the Bekaa region.

The TV showed a video in which Hanibaal Gadaffi appeared and said he is in good health and was kidnapped "by people whom we owe them the truth."

He also said his captors are "loyal to the cause of Imam Moussa al-Sadr," the Shiite spiritual leader and founder of Lebanon's AMAL Movement who disappeared in a trip to Libya in 1978.

Hannibal was among a group of family members including Gaddafi' s wife, son Mohammed and daughter Aisha who escaped to neighboring Algeria after the fall of the Libyan capital Tripoli.
