"ZAWIYAH, Libya (Reuters) - Muammar Gaddafi urged Libyans Monday to free the country from 'traitors,' as rebels in the west began to strangle a major lifeline to his capital.
His broadcast appeal was made over a bad telephone line from an undisclosed location. In the following hours, a senior figure in his government showed up in Cairo with his family.
Egyptian sources said Nasser al-Mabrouk Abdullah, identified as Gaddafi's deputy minister of security, flew to Cairo airport with nine relatives from the Tunisian island resort of Djerba."
