Libyan official in Cairo to discuss ban on broadcasting pro-Qadhafi satellite channels

A Libyan envoy arrived in Cairo on Monday to discuss the broadcasting of satellite TV channels that support Libya's current regime.

Egyptian authorities stopped the broadcasts of 14 channels that support Libyan leader Muammar Qadhafi, as they incite against peaceful protesters.

Ali al-Kilany, chief of Libyan state TV, arrived from Damascus on a brief visit to Cairo.

Sources close to Kilany said he will meet with several Egyptian officials to discuss the broadcasting issue.

Kilany will also clarify Qadhafi’s point of view toward the situation in Libya and attacks launched by NATO, the sources added.

The sources didn’t rule out the possibility that Kilany might meet with some Libyan transitional council figures to discuss ways to resolve the crisis there.
