EU calls on Libya to cooperate with ICC on trial of Saif Al-Islam Gaddafi

The European Union Saturday described the capture of Saif Al-Islam Gaddafi as "a significant development," and said he was a key player in the former regime.

Michael Mann, spokesman of EU foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton, in a statement here tonight said Saif Al-Islam also faces serious charges including allegations of crimes against humanity committed during the Libyan revolution.

"It is of utmost importance that Saif Al-Islam's safety is now ensured and his due process rights guaranteed so that he can be delivered to justice, in accordance with Libya's international obligations and the National Transitional Council's public commitments to respect the rule of law," said the statement.
