The International Criminal Court in The Hague says it's had indirect contact with Colonel Gaddafi's son Saif al-Islam Gaddafi. He's believed to be interested in surrendering to the ICC. Anna Holligan reports from The Hague.

The chief prosecutor says he doesn't know where Muammar Gaddafi's son Saif al-Islam is, but that he's in discussions about a possible surrender. Saif al-Islam was widely seen as the de facto prime minister during the uprising against the Libyan government. The court issued arrest warrants for Saif al-Islam, his father and their chief intelligence officer Abdullah al-Senussi in connection with the violent suppression of opposition protesters. Luis Moreno-Ocampo has also said there may be mercenaries offering Saif al-Islam refuge in countries like Zimbabwe that don't subscribe to the Rome Statute that underpins the ICC.
