Libya update: Things are a wee bit unclear

From Al Jazeera:

Heavy fighting has broken out in the al-Mansoura district and near Gaddafi's compound in Bab al-Azizya between government forces and opposition fighters.

Saif al-Islam, the son of Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi, who was reported to have been captured by opposition forces, appeared in al-Mansoura early on Tuesday morning, which has raised questions on the streets of Tripoli over rebel claims about the extent of their control over the Libyan capital.

"There is confusion among the ranks of opposition fighters on the ground," Al Jazeera's Zeina Khodr reporting from Tripoli said. "Some people are asking whether the transitional national council has been infilitrated.

The head of Libya's opposition National Transitional Council (NTC) on Monday announced the end of Gaddafi's decades-long rule after rebel fighters had swept into the heart of Tripoli on Sunday night, prompting scenes of jubiliation.

But the re-appearance of Saif, an influential figure who is wanted by the International Criminal Court, in front of a crowd of supporters and bouts of fierce fighting in Tripoli on Monday threw doubt on opposition claims that the city had fallen.
