Report: Imam al-Sadr’s Body Might be in a ‘Farm’ in Libya
Head of Tripoli's supreme military council Abdelhakim Belhaj stressed that “reliable information” indicates that missing Imam Moussa al-Sadr is buried in a “farm” south of the Libyan capital.
“We previously received information that Imam al-Sadr was moved to Sabha and then buried in al-Qalaa neighborhood,” Belhaj told BBC Arabic.
However, he said: “New information indicates that he is (buried) in a farm.”
“We are following up the information and we want to know the truth, which will be declared at the right time,” Belhaj told BBC.
BBC journalist Feras Kilani was preparing a report about a farm where Moammar Gadhafi’s forces had detained and beat him up along with the BBC news team that was trying to reach the strife-torn western city of Zawiya in March.
Kilani was surprised during the shooting of the documentary that a special security unit burst into the area with equipment set to discover mass graves.
The unit tried to stop the BBC team from filming.
The report said that the “farm that was being probed includes bodies for Libyan opposition members and African figures.”
In 1978, al-Sadr and his companions flew to Tripoli for a week of talks with Libyan officials. They were never seen or heard from again. The day he was last seen, on Aug. 31, 1978, is still marked annually in Lebanon.
At the time, the Libyan regime insisted al-Sadr and his aides left on a flight to Rome at the end of their visit and suggested the imam fell victim to an inter-Shiite power struggle.

I hope he is buried a mile deep.... He was the creator and inventor of modern day shiite thuggery under the pretext of the"deprived" or "mahroumeen". They have swallowed Lebanon and still they call themselves deprived!

Jabalamel, let me ask you two questions:
1- Why is it that when you want to argue with someone in the comments list, you always mention sectarian hatred from those who comment? You know well that your political party is a bunch of thugs and thieves and don't know the first thing about integrity and honesty in work, and they are the ones who advocate blind sectarianism.
2- Since you and the likes of you always complain about being deprived or "Mahromen", as your boss raves about that the whole time, then why is it that he and his family own almost half of Beirut and almost all of the South, living in lavish mansions and earning billions, leaving you and the others in poverty?
If you can answer those two questions in a civil manner without resorting to any verbal nonsense, I'll be impressed.
PS: I'm not a Sunni, but you probably won't believe that.
