£1m reward to capture runaway Gaddafi
Libyan rebels today offered a £1m reward to capture Gaddafi as the hunt intensified to find the runaway leader.
The opposition council in Benghazi hopes that the sum will tempt members of Gaddafi's inner circle to turn him in. The rebels will have large amounts of cash available when Libyan assets are unfrozen and they have promised amnesty to anybody who captures or kills Gaddafi.
The United States believes that he is still in Libya, Pentagon spokesman Colonel Dave Lapan said today.
