The killing was allegedly ordered by former French President Nicolas Sarkozy. Furthermore, according to a report in the El Obeidi told the Telegraph: "In exchange for this information, Assad had obtained a promise of a grace period from the French and less political pressure on the regime – which is what happened." El Obeidi went on to say "French intelligence played a direct role in the death of Gaddafi, including his killing," by directing Libyan militamen to an area they could ambush Gaddafi's convoy. As According to All Africa report that former Libyan interim Prime Minister, Mahmoud Jibril, who was in charge of Libya at the time of Gaddafi's murder, confirmed to Egyptian television that Gaddafi's killer was "a foreign agent who mixed with the revolutionary brigades."

At the very least he wasn't too keen on Gaddafi's claims that he had helped to finance his presidential election campaign. Of course it could be coincidence that French fighter planes were involved in targeting the Gaddafi convoy that tried to slip out of Sirte at dawn on the morning of Gaddafi's death, apparently waving white flags of surrender."According to Intrepid Reporter the Gaddafi convoy, complete with white flags, was tracked by a CIA Predator drone and then "French and other NATO jets pounded the convoy."All Africa report that former Libyan interim Prime Minister, Mahmoud Jibril, who was in charge of Libya at the time of Gaddafi's murder, confirmed to Egyptian television that Gaddafi's killer was "a foreign agent who mixed with the revolutionary brigades."
