NTC captures Gaddafi daughter’s house

2011-10-13 2

Heavy fighting continues in former Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi's home town of Sirte.
National Transitional Council forces made significant gains during battles overnight.
The NTC field commander says more than 80 percent of the Gaddafi stronghold is now under NTC control, with forces loyal to Gaddafi confined to just two areas of the town.
NTC forces have captured a house believed to belong to Aisha Gaddafi, the former leader's daughter.

"OK, Saif with wife. Look that, look that, look that. This Saif. The same 'sword' in English, you know. The same 'sword' in English. But, this son Gaddafi."
During a visit to Sirte on Tuesday, NTC chairman Mustafa Abdel Jalil said it would take two more days to capture the town.
Gaddafi himself is believed to be hiding far to the south in the vast Libyan desert.
