Two men who allegedly killed an opponent of Libyan leader Moammar Kadafi on a Rome street Friday admitted they are Libyan agents, Italian police said. The victim was identified as Yussef Kherbigh, 40, head of the Cairo office of an anti-Kadafi group called the National Front for the Salvation of Libya. The two suspects, apprehended by an off-duty policeman as they fled, were identified as Omar Ghamudi, 39, and Tharauni Ramadan, 29. They said they are members of Kadafi’s Libyan Revolutionary Committees and went to Rome to kill the “dissident dog,” police said.
