None

Egyptian police arrested a cousin of late Libyan dictator Muammar Gaddafi, a former Libyan ambassador to Egypt and another ex-Libyan official on Tuesday, a security source told Reuters.

 

The source said Ahmed Gaddaf Alddam, 60, a Gaddafi relative who had been a special Libyan envoy, former ambassador Ali Maria and Mohamed Ibrahim Mansour, who headed a Libyan state fund under Gaddafi, were all detained. An aide to the Egyptian prosecutor general said he had ordered that Gaddaf Alddam, Ali Maria and Mansour be detained for 30 days pending the arrival of paperwork from Libya needed for his extradition.
