New leaders declare Libya free

Libya’s transitional government has declared national liberation before a jubilant crowd in Benghazi, where the revolt against Muammar Gaddafi began.
Tens of thousands of people packed into Freedom Square to hear National Transitional Council (NTC) leader Mustafa Abdul Jalil speak.
Gaddafi’s capture and death on Thursday came as Nato-backed NTC forces pursued loyalists in his stronghold, Sirte.
The NTC has come under pressure to investigate how he died.
A post-mortem carried out on the former leader’s body on Sunday showed he had received a bullet wound to the head, medical sources said.
The body itself, along with that of Gaddafi’s son Mutassim, has been put on public display in a cold storage facility in Misrata. (BBC)
