Seif al hanging TO ISLAM

                            Gaddafi's son to be hanged in Libya, says ICC Agency (Brazil)

Seif al-Islam, 40, son of former Libyan president Muammar Gaddafi, should be sentenced to death by hanging, told the International Criminal Court (ICC). Melinda Taylor, the ICC said appeals were made to the Libyan authorities for Islam to be tried by the court.

The ICC and the Libyan government vying for the right to judge Islam, arrested in Zenten (170 km from Tripoli, the Libyan capital) in November 2011. The dispute also involves the former chief of the Intelligence Abdullah Al Senoussi, 63, extradited from Mauritania to Libya in September.

In May, the Libyan authorities have submitted an application to challenge the jurisdiction of the ICC to judge Islam, suspected of crimes against humanity. Both parties presented arguments in the coming weeks and should be announced a decision on the standoff.

Libyan authorities say they have enough evidence to prosecute Islam. The representative of Libya to the ICC, Ahmed Al Jehani, said Islam will trial "fair and equitable". But he acknowledged difficulties in the process.
