Reports have it that the son of a notorious former Libyan intelligence chief was discovered dead in the southern city of Sabha.
There are conflicting reports on the cause of Amhammed al-Senussi’s death.
His father Abdullah al-Senussi – now in a Libyan jail – was one of the late Colonel Muammar Gaddafi’s most-trusted officials and also his brother-in-law.
He was charged with crimes against humanity by the International Criminal Court (ICC), following the brutal suppression of anti-Gaddafi demonstrations in 2011.
The former head of intelligence is also wanted for questioning by Scottish and US investigators over the 1988 Lockerbie bombing.
270 people died aboard a Pan Am passenger plane when a bomb in the aircraft exploded as it flew over Scotland.
