The son of Libya's late leader Moammar Gadhafi was released Friday after being kidnapped in Lebanon, according to Lebanese television.
Hannibal Gadhafi appeared in a video aired by a Lebanese television station Friday saying he had been treated well, but he looked as if he had been beaten. In the video, Gadhafi demanded information about an Iranian-Lebanese cleric, Imam Moussa al-Sadr, who disappeared in Libya decades ago, according to The Associated Press.
By late Friday night, Gadhafi, who is married to a Lebanese woman, was in the hands of Lebanese security forces. He was released in Baalbek, Lebanon, but it was unclear where or when he had been kidnapped, NBC News reported.
Hannibal Gadhafi fled to Algeria after Tripoli fell, along with his mother and several other relatives.
