Killed, arrested, in exile or disappeared, Muammar Gaddafi and his family, as well as key figures in the former regime, have met a range of different fortunes since the Libyan strongman was ousted by a popular uprising that broke out one year ago.
- Muammar Gaddafi
Libya's leader for 42 years evaded the rebels relentless' assault on Sirte for weeks, until NATO air strikes hit his convoy as it fled his hometown on October 20. He was found hiding in a dry sewage pipe and captured alive, but was shot dead shortly afterwards in circumstances that remain hazy and prompted international unease.
Some Libyan officials say he was killed in cross-fire between Misrata fighters and his men after his capture.
Following his death, Gaddafi's body was held on public display in a refrigerated chamber outside Misrata, before being buried secretly in the desert.
- Seif al-Islam
Long seen as his father's successor, Seif al-Islam, born in 1972 and wanted by the International Criminal Court (ICC) for crimes against humanity, was arrested in November in southern Libya.
The second of Gaddafi's eight children, with a doctorate from the London School of Economics, he held no official position in the country but was described as Libya's de facto prime minister.
He carved out influence as a loyal emissary of the regime and architect of reform, anxious to normalise ties with the West.
But he dropped his reformist image to become the face of the regime's fight against the uprising and lost three fingers in a NATO raid on the southern town of Bani Walid, one of the last Gaddafi bastions to fall. He was captured in the nearby town of Zintan. He now awaits trial.
- Mutassim Gaddafi
Career soldier and doctor, born in 1975.
In 2007, his father promoted him to head of the National Security Council.
Suspected of attempting a coup, he was exiled to Egypt but later pardoned and returned home. Killed during the siege of Sirte on October 20 and also buried secretly in the desert.
- Saadi Gaddafi
Footballer with a reputation as a playboy, born in 1973, he led an elite unit of his father's army before fleeing to Niger in early September, where was a was placed under house arrest. He is wanted by the new Libya authorities for theft and intimidation when he headed Libya's football federation.
Mexican officials said in December that they had foiled an earlier plan to smuggle Saadi and other relatives into Mexico on false papers.
Last week he warned that a nationwide rebellion was brewing and vowed to return to Libya "at any time."
- Khamis Gaddafi
Gaddafi's youngest son, born in 1983. Trained in Russia, he commanded a battalion of army loyalists as well as mercenaries and played a major role in putting down the uprising in Benghazi in February.
The National Transitional Council announced in late August that he had been killed, but his death was confirmed only in late October.
- Mohammed, Aisha and Hannibal Gaddafi
Gaddafi's eldest son, born in 1970, and the only child from his first wife Fatiha al-Nuri, Mohammed headed the Libyan Olympic Committee and was chairman of Libya's General Post and Telecommunications Company.
Rebels said they had captured him on August 21, but he then escaped to Algeria, along with his sister Aisha, a lawyer, his brother Hannibal, and Gaddafi's second wife Safiya.
- Abdullah al-Senussi
Wanted by the ICC for crimes against humanity allegedly committed in trying to put down Libya's bloody revolt, Gaddafi's former intelligence chief is still at large. The National Transitional Council announced in November that Senussi had been captured, before retracting the claim.
- Baghdadi Mahmoudi
The former prime minister was arrested on Tunisia's southwestern border with Algeria on September 21, but was cleared on Tuesday on the charge of crossing illegally into the neighbouring country.
He remains the subject of two extradition requests from Libya, which he fled following the collapse of Gaddafi's regime.
Tunisian President Moncef Marzouki has told Tripoli Mahmoudi would be returned when conditions were in place for a "fair trial". But Tunisian authorities gave no indication this week about whether they intended to free him.
