According to BBC News, pictures posted on the internet apparently showed him having his head and beard shaved. Saadi Gaddafi fled after his father was killed in the 2011 revolution. He is accused of shooting protesters and other crimes during his father's rule, when he was head of Libya's special forces. Niger had previously refused Libyan requests to extradite him, with the justice minister saying he was "certain to face the death penalty". In 2012, Interpol issued a "red notice", obliging member countries to arrest him.
