Gaddafi son: govt will not destroy Libya oil supplies

The government of Muammar Gaddafi will never resort to destroying Libya's oil wealth in its fight to put down an insurrection, the Libyan leader's son Saif al-Islam told Turkish news channel CNN-Turk on Friday.

He said the Gaddafi family had no intention of fleeing Libya, and the government was in control of the west, south and centre of the country. (Reuters)
