Muammar Gaddafi scavenged for food and hid in abandoned houses during his final days, it was reported here.

Gaddafi, who ruled Libya for 42 years, was killed Oct 20 by National Transitional Council (NTC) fighters.

Mansour Dao, one of Gaddafi's top security officials, told CNN that Gaddafi spent his final weeks scavenging for food and hiding in abandoned houses in Sirte.

Bereft of the comforts and luxuries that he enjoyed, Gaddafi lived without electricity or TV as the heavily-armed rebels advanced.

He said Gaddafi's behaviour became "unpredictable" "He was very worried and erratic - this could be because he was afraid during his last days

Gaddafi believed he could have continued to lead Libya and Dao added: "It's not easy for someone who has been in power for 42 years to believe that it is over in a minute."

For some poeple those murderers were angels because they were chanting islamic slogans.

Totally un-islamic dislpay of so called born in Islamic society. Ugrateful Thugs! !

Whatever be it. but no human is allowed to subjected to such an humiliating treatment if at all they had followed the Islamic Priniciples.

Surprisingly, few persons leading the revolutionery bands were from al-qaida who were released from Guntnamao camp.

Here it exposes the double standard of The WEstern Allies. Afganistan they chanted Alqaida and attacked.Here they took the help of same men! !

C'mon Guys this was all about to gain control over the Oil Riches.

think it over why NATO or America is not interested to have the same policy for Yemen or Syria?

Some hypocrites still think only one way like an ostrich bury his head in the sand and thinking he is safe.

Poor Ostrich! !

Now body counts the Plus points although lots of minus's are counted.

First of all does any neighbour or any outsider has the right to attack your home? or impose sanctions?

I am still wondering where all his sexy, cute and well trained lady bodyguards disappeared. Maybe some other tyrants could use them to safeguard themselves or did they also go with Al Qaida

FLOR - you mean like this???

Al-Qaeda armed by Libyan war

' A desert chief with al-Qaida's North Africa branch has confirmed fears that his terror organization procured weapons from stockpiles left unguarded in Libya after the fall of Moammar Gadhafi.

Mokhtar Belmokhtar was quoted by the private Mauritanian newspaper Nouakchott Infos and its online version Nouakchott Information Agency as saying that "it's totally natural we benefited from Libyan arms in such conditions."'

Very true...As the saying goes "God helps those who help themselves" And naturally our end will be determined by how we lead our lives.

Fathima, the only one who can save one from a terrible end is oneself. We should not put our own responsibility on another being...human or otherwise.

One needs to often reflect on the very fickle nature of life. Someone who is living in the lap of luxury today maybe reduced to rags tomorrow and vice versa.A powerful man can become a weak dependent being. God save us from such a terrible end...Aameen!

Splendid... it's a shame he didn't have to endure it for longer. Who knows he may have eventually seen the error of his ways.

I suppose the syrian dictator Bashar Assad is aware of this and his turn might come sooner then later. Its so sad that when their time is up not even dogs want to get near them
