Muammar Gaddafi, who ruled Libya for more than a decade, was shown on Thursday in TV footage being dragged and manhandled by the fighters who overthrown him.
An English channel broadcasted on Thursday an exclusive footage showing the body of Libya's ruler Gaddafi being dragged by rebels along a street.
In various images, Gaddafi was shown in what appeared to sand-coloured fatigues which clearly showed that his face was splattered with blood and his left shoulder awash in red as fighters hauled him up off the ground. He is also supposed to have a wound over his head.
It appeared that Gaddafi was being loaded into the back of a pick-up truck where his body was surrounded by several people. Blood had been wiped onto the trousers of some who were lifting him.
Libyan television said that Gaddafi had suffered bullet wounds to the stomach and head.
Initially the dead body was shown face down on the ground, but part of the shirt was put around his head by those around him to roll him over and reveal the former leader's face to the camera.
The body was not wearing a t-shirt and one person was using a camera phone to take shots of the former leader.
Al Jazeera said the images from the ambulance were the first of Gaddafi's body arriving in the city of Misrata. His face was covered with blood, and one of people around him pointed to a wound to his head which looked like a bullet hole.
