Muammar Gaddafi was captured as his hometown of Sirte was falling on Thursday, a National Transitional Council commander said, adding that the ousted Libyan strongman was badly wounded.

“He has been captured. He is badly wounded, but he is still breathing,” Mohamed Leith told AFP, adding that he had seen Gaddafi himself and that he was wearing a khaki uniform and a turban.

Libyan TV channel “Libya lil Ahrar” also said that he was in custody.

In Sirte, medics said the defence minister in Gaddafi's ousted regime, Abu Bakr Yunis, had been killed in the final battle for the strongman's hometown.

His body was identified at the field hospital where it was brought in a pick-up truck on Thursday, Dr Abdu Rauf told AFP. - AFP

Another report 20 secs ago says he was cornered, put up a fight, was shot in the legs, and then in the head. "He is definitely dead". But we haven't heard from anyone who's actually seen this...so all reports taken with sack of NaCl.
