From Times Wire Reports
Libya will not execute five Bulgarian nurses and a Palestinian doctor sentenced to death last month, the son of Libyan leader Moammar Kadafi said in a newspaper interview.
He called the verdicts unfair.
A Libyan court sentenced the six on a conviction of intentionally infecting hundreds of children with HIV.
Kadafi’s son, Seif Islam, told a Bulgarian newspaper that a solution would be found soon to save the six and satisfy the families of the infected children, but he gave no details.
