October 25, 2011  17:18

Too little, too late, but Libya's interim leader Mustafa Abdel Jalil has ordered an investigation into the death of Muammar Gaddafi under pressure from the international community.  

Jalil's orders were issued as new video surfaced of a man claiming to be Gaddafi's killer. There are allegations that fighters for the new regime might have been responsible for the execution of a group of the deposed dictator's supporters.  

"We grabbed him. I hit him in the face. Some fighters wanted to take him away and that's when I shot him twice - in the head and in the chest," the New York Post quoted the fighter who identified himself as Senad el Sadik el Ureybi, as saying.
