CAIRO, EGYPT (NEWS1130) – An Egyptian airport official says a high-ranking member of the Libyan government has landed in Cairo saying he has a message from Moammar Gadhafi.
The official told The Associated Press that the head of Libya’s logistics and supply authority arrived on a private jet this afternoon.
Libyan embassy staff told Egyptian officials that Maj. Gen Abdul-Rahman bin Ali al-Saiid al-Zawi was carrying a message from Gadhafi, who is battling an opposition movement that has taken over much of eastern Libya.
The airport official spoke on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to speak to the media. He said the plane flew over Greece on the way to Egypt.
