Libyan leader Muammar Qadhafi sent an envoy to Qatari Prince Hamad bin Khalifa al-Thani to ask him to tone down Al Jazaeera's coverage of the turmoil in Libya, according to sources from the Libyan opposition in Cairo today.
The same source added that the Libyan envoy provided explanations for the alleged involvement of Qadhafi's forces in the killing of Al Jazeera cameraman Ali Hassan al-Gaber.
Official sources from Cairo Airport said Electricity, Water Resources and Gas Minister Omran Abu Kra left Cairo on a private plane with a Libyan delegation and headed for Doha in secrecy.
Abu Kra returned to Cairo 36 hours later and then flew back to Tripoli.
The Libyan delegation had arrived in Cairo on Thursday to attend an emergency meeting for Arab foreign ministers on Libya.The delegation, however, was not allowed to attend the meeting after the Arab League suspended the membership of Libya.
