Mummar Gaddafi
Cairo, Nov 20: The son of slain dictator of Libya, Muammar Gaddafi, Saif-al Islam who was captured on Nov 19, Saturday, offered a bribe of $2 billion to the rebels for his release, reported Az Zintan TV channel.

According to the channel, Saif-al-Islam offered $2 billion to the rebels in Zintan after he was captured in Southern Libya.

The rebels however rejected the talks with Gaddafi's son and looked at his offer as “a humiliation to the revolution", said the channel.

Muammar Gaddafi, who ran the country for 42 years, was killed by the supporters of the National Transitional Council (NTC) in Sirte near his hometown.

Mutassim, Gaddafi's son and Abu Bakar Younis, former defence minister were also killed with him and was buried in a undisclosed location.
