Late Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi's son Hannibal has been freed after being briefly kidnapped by an armed group in Lebanon, security sources say.
In a video shown on Lebanese TV, the captive businessman was seen appealing for more information concerning the 1978 disappearance of the prominent Lebanese Shia cleric Musa al-Sadr.
He was freed in the city of Baalbek and dispatched to Beirut, police told AP.
The 40-year-old former playboy was given sanctuary in Oman in 2012.
