It has been reported today, Saturday, that Al-Hamali Ahmed Al-Hatmani, commander of the Wadi Eshatti Battalion, has been murdered.

He is credited as the man who told revolutionaries from Zintan where Saif Al-Islam was hiding.  Although himself a revolutionary from the south, he reportedly gained Saif's confidence in order to help capture him.

It is reported he was killed in the Wadi Eshetti's Berqan area by a man nicknamed  “Satour” (the  Machete) who is said to be one of the main Qaddafi supporters in southern Libya.
