Tripoli, 5 September:

Libya’s former spy chief and brother-in-law to deposed leader Muammar Qaddafi has been extradited from Mauritania and has now arrived in Tripoli where he has been transferred to Hadba Al-Khadra prison.

Abdullah Al-Senussi, who is also wanted by the International Criminal Court on charges of Crimes Against Humanity, was arrested in Mauritania in March, having previously fled to Morocco following the collapse of the Qaddafi regime last year.

“Senussi was flown into Metiga airbase early this afternoon and transferred by helicopter to Hadba Al-Khadra prison”, said Colonel Mohammed Gwaider, the prison governor.

Hadba Al-Khadra also holds a number of other prominent former regime members, including Abuzeid Dorda, Qaddafi’s former external intelligence chief, and Baghdadi Al-Mahmoudi, his former prime minister.
