Saif Al-Islam Gaddafi to Match in Presidential Polls

The son of late Libyan dictator Muammar Gaddafi registered as a presidential candidate in the General Elections which will be held in December. His entry into an unstable political scene divided between squabbling factions is expected to further complicate efforts to hold the election. The ballot is seen by the UN and western governments as a necessary step to unify the oil-exporting country emerging from civil war, analysts say. Muammer Gaddafi was overthrown during a Nato-backed revolution in 2011. SOURCE: WION
