Gaddafi family says Italy asset seizure illegal

motorcycle and a chunk of forest on a Mediterranean island, were held by Libya’s sovereign wealth fund on behalf of the Gaddafi family, Italy’s tax police said.
A lawyer who represents Gaddafi’s daughter Aisha and son Saadi, both of whom have been in exile since a rebellion last year ended their father’s rule, said the assets were part of legitimate investments by the sovereign wealth fund. The Italian seizure of assets comprise a belated and illegal compliance with a dubious court order and a persecutory sanctions regime,” the lawyer, Nick Kaufman, said in a statement. —  http://en.trend.az
