The account of the man who claims to be the first to "capture" a dazed and wounded Muammar Qaddafi:
Q: When you first stormed him at the hole, step by step, and tell me exactly.
A: We were close to the sea. [Caption: the area of Assides, west of Sirte, close to the coast, with many storage facilities.] Our brigade was going to support Tiger Brigade, the Al-Gheryan brigade.
Q: From where did you enter? From the industrial area?
A: ....We saw around 15 people, our freedom fighters went and captured them. And we advanced towards the storage facilities...and we saw people running left and right. At that time, we were standing on top of the hole where Gaddafi was hiding.
We saw another two people hiding and fired on them....Our colleague went down and he killed two of them....Later on, we went to the other side and four or five ran out from under the road. And they surrendered themselves and they told us Gaddafi is hiding inside and is injured.
When we entered the hole, I saw his bushy head, and I captured him immediately. Then all the fighters came and surrounded him.
When we captured him, we found this hand gun with him. And another gun in a bag, which is still with our colleague in Sirte. This is the gun and this is the Thuraya phone.
Put them on the table so that anyone who wants to can film it.
This blood on the gun is Gaddafi's.
