Tripoli: Libya's
National Transitional Council (NTC) has said it has still no
information about the whereabouts of ousted leader Muammar
Gaddafi, Xinhua reported.
Local media reports said NTC fighters were kept out of the
southeastern town of Bani Walid by the remnant armed forces loyal
to the former leader.
At a press conference in capital Tripoli Monday, NTC spokesman
Ahmed Bani said there was no information whether Gaddafi was in
Bani Walid or not.
After the ouster of Gaddafi following months of a NATO-led
operation, the NTC has been recognised as the legitimate power in
Libya by some 60 countries.
At an international conference on Libya recently held in Paris,
world leaders agreed to release $15 billion in frozen Libyan
assets for the country's interim authorities to help Libya return
to normal life after months of violence.
