VIENNA (AFP) - The body of Libya's former oil minister Shukri Ghanem, who had defected from Moamer Kadhafi's regime, was found Sunday in the Danube, Austrian police said in a statement.
No trace of violence were found on the body, police spokesman Roman Hahslinger said, adding that "it is possible that he felt unwell and fell into the water." Earlier, APA news agency had reported that Ghanem was found dead in his apartment after having apparently suffered from a heart attack.
