Deposed Libyan leader Muammar
Gaddafi was captured and wounded near his hometown of Sirte at dawn on
Thursday as he tried to flee in a convoy which NATO warplanes attacked,
National Transitional Council official Abdel Majid said on Thursday.

The senior NTC military official said by telephone that the head of Gaddafi's armed forces Abu Bakr Younus Jabr had been killed during the capture of the Libyan ex-leader. Unconfirmed reports claim Gaddafi himself was also killed.
