TRIPOLI : Libya's National Transitional Council has taken control of Sabha, known as one of the main bastions of fallen leader Muammar Gaddafi, military spokesman from the NTC Ahmed Bani confirmed Thursday, following similar reports from the frontline the previous day.
At a press conference held in the Libyan capital of Tripoli, Bani said he is sure that Sabha is entirely free now, after the NTC fighters had driven away some of the Gaddafi loyalists from the town.
He still fell short of courage to make any confirmation whether Gaddafi and his sons were once in Sabha, before the NTC's seizure of the town.
Bani claimed that although some Gaddafi loyalists had run away from the town, but they would not be able to run away from justice.
