Official: Gaddafi burial delayed until location set

None

The burial of slain Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi has been delayed for a few days until arrangements for the location are finalised, the oil minister of Libya's interim government said on Friday.

 

"I told them to keep it in the freezer for a few days... to make sure that everybody knows he is dead," Ali Tarhouni told Reuters. He said the body was in Misrata, which was a stronghold of the rebels who toppled Gaddafi throughout Libya's civil war. (Reuters)
