Spokesman of the ruling National Transitional Council Mohammed Al-Hareizi said Monday Seif Al-Islam will be transferred to the capital Tripoli within 10 days and that his trial will conclude before parliamentary elections scheduled two months from now.
Seif Al-Islam was captured by revolutionary fighters in the southern desert of Libya in November.
Al-Hareizi says he will be tried on charges of murder, corruption and rape dating from his late father’s 42-year-rule.
Rights groups have urged Libyan authorities to hand over Seif Al-Islam to the International Criminal Court in The Hague for trial.
