.- Saif Al-Islam Gadhafi, son of Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi veteran, said Sunday that his country is at risk of falling into civil war amid bloody protests that threaten the stability of government. Gadhafi's son, who denied having been hundreds of deaths in the protests, said the General People's Congress will meet on Monday to discuss an agenda "clear" of reforms and said that the government will "increase salaries." Saif Al-Islam Gadhafi said Libya was moving towards a "chaos" since a separatist movement was threatening national unity, since there was an attempt by Libya to divide into smaller Islamic states, but tens of thousands of citizens heading to Tripoli to defend Gadhafi.
He said that the police and the army, given its poor training, had made mistakes in the repression of the demonstrations and that such institutions had lost a lot of equipment like tanks and artillery, at the hands of civilians. Meanwhile, protesters took to the streets of the Libyan capital and threw stones at the posters of leader Muammar Gadhafi, as police used tear gas to try to disperse them, a worker told Reuters.
"People are on the streets chanting" Allahu Akbar '(God is great) and throwing stones at the pictures of Gadhafi, "the witness said by telephone from Tripoli. "The police are firing tear gas everywhere, even entering the houses," he added. For its part, the human rights group Human Rights Watch said the death toll had risen Libyan protests at least 233.
