A court in Libya has sentenced Col. Muammar Gaddafi’s son, Saif al-Islam, and eight others to death over war crimes linked to the 2011 revolution, – the BBC reports.
They were on trial along with dozens of other close associates of the deposed leader, accused of suppressing protests during the uprising.
Saif al-Islam was not present in court and gave evidence via video link.
He is being held by a former rebel group from the town of Zintan that refuses to release him.
