Mutassim Gaddafi's final cigarette
Wearing a blood-stained vest and a torn pair of pants, one of Muammar Gaddafi's most notorious sons, Mutassim, is seen smoking a cigarette and sipping water from a bottle - just hours before his death.
Photographs released later showed Mutassim dead, with a bullet wound in the neck.
Reports of Muttasim's death emerged much after news of Gaddafi's capture in Sirte, making it possible that the son may have watched or heard about his father being dragged out of a sewer by NTC rebels.
Libya's new rulers are yet to announce transition plans and world leaders have also pledged their support.
Meanwhile, a field commander of the Libyan National Transitional Council told Al-Arabiya satellite channel over phone that Seif al-Islam, heir apparent to Gaddafi, had been captured in the south of the city and was now receiving medical treatment, Xinhua quoted the report as saying on Friday evening.
Photos and a video of his detention will be made public within hours, said commander Ali el-Shawesh.
Shawesh, however, refused to reveal the gravity of Seif al-Islam's injuries.
The report coul not be immediately confirmed by officials of Libya's National Transitional Council.
Seif al-Islam has been on the run since NTC forces took full control of Gaddafi's hometown Sirte on Thursday.
