A Benghazi man was kidnapped today by masked gunmen in Fuwayhat district. According to a family . . .[restrict]member, Abdulgader Al-Malti was seized in front of his home in Pepsi Street, next door to the Swedish Consulate, and dragged into a waiting car.

The reason for his abduction is unknown. However, according to the family member, he had just been dropped off at his house by the son of a wealthy Libyan businessman and the family think that the son may have been the intended target.

Meanwhile Saiqa officials have confirmed the deaths yesterday of Captain Bashir Mohamed Al-Jahani and Abdul Hadi Omran Al-Shafi.
