BEIRUT -- air force 1 The son of Libya s late leader Moammar Gadhafi was kidnapped in Lebanon by militants demanding information about the fate of a Shiite cleric who went missing in Libya decades ago, a security official and local TV stations said Friday.Hannibal Gadhafi appeared in a video aired late Friday on local Al-Jadeed TV saying anyone with information about Imam Moussa al adidas campus -Sadr should come forward. Gadhafi appeared to have been beaten up and had black eyes but said in the video he is in good health, happy and relaxed. Later Friday, a senior security official said police collected Gadhafi from the northeastern city of Baalbek where he was being held by the Shiite militants, whose affiliation was not immediately known. The official, who spoke on condition of anonymity in line with regulations, said Gadhafi was being brought to Beirut.Al-Sadr s 1978 disappearance has been a long-standing sore point in Lebanon. The imam s family believes he may still be alive in a Libyan prison, though most Lebanese presume al-Sadr is dead. Today he would be 87 years old.Al-Sadr was the founder of a Shiite political and military group that took part in the long Lebanese civil war that began in 1975, largely pitting Muslims against Christians. I am with people who have a cause and they are loyal to their cause, Gadhafi, who is married to a Lebanese woman, said in the video.

ANKARA, Turkey -- The lawyer for an American pastor at the center of a spat between NATO allies Turkey and the United States petitioned Turkey s highest court on Wednesday seeking his release from house arrest. Andrew Craig Brunson, 50, who has lived in Turkey for more than two decades, was arrested in December 2016 on espionage and terror-related charges.The pastor, who rejects the charges, had been jailed until he was released to home detention on July 25 for health reasons. He faces up to 35 years in prison if he is convicted on both counts.U.S President Donald Trump has demanded Brunson s release.
