flag Hannibal Gadhafi, son of Muammar Gadhafi, is critically ill after nearly a decade in Lebanese pre-trial detention over a 1978 disappearance case.

flag Hannibal Gadhafi, son of former Libyan leader Muammar Gadhafi, is in critical health after nearly a decade of pre-trial detention in Lebanon, his lawyer says, citing severe abdominal pain and depression from prolonged isolation. flag Arrested in 2015 after being abducted from Syria, he faces allegations tied to the 1978 disappearance of Lebanese cleric Imam Moussa Sadr, a case that has strained Lebanon-Libya relations. flag His lawyers call him a political detainee, arguing his detention stems from his father’s name, and Human Rights Watch has criticized the case as based on unsubstantiated claims. flag The Lebanese public prosecutor reportedly supports his release, but a final decision rests with an examining judge.
