BENGHAZI, Libya - Libya's rebels have no concrete information on the whereabouts of Muammar Gadhafi or his sons, Mustafa Abdel Jalil, chairman of the rebel National Transitional Council, said on Saturday.
Speaking at a news conference, he said the council might consider inviting police officers from Arab or Muslim states to Libya to help with security, but did not want a police presence from any other nations.
Rebel commanders are still negotiating with Gadhafi loyalists to try to persuade them to surrender control over the city of Sirte, Gadhafi's home town, Abdel Jalil said.
