Personal Life
Saadi is married to the daughter of al-Khweildi al-Hmeidi, a Libyan military commander.
A US diplomatic cable in 2009 called Saadi "the black sheep" of Muammar Gaddafi's family. It mentioned scuffles with European police, "abuse of drugs and alcohol, excessive partying" and "profligate affairs with men and women". Saadi's bisexuality had partly prompted the arrangement of his marriage to the commander's daughter, the cable said. Gay pornography was reportedly found among Saadi's possessions when his home was ransacked by looters after the fall of Tripoli.

Famous quotes containing the words personal and/or life:
“I am in no boastful mood. I shall not do more than I can, and I shall do all I can to save the government, which is my sworn duty as well as my personal inclination. I shall do nothing in malice. What I deal with is too vast for malicious dealing.”
—Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
“In our world of big names, curiously, our true heroes tend to be anonymous. In this life of illusion and quasi-illusion, the person of solid virtues who can be admired for something more substantial than his well-knownness often proves to be the unsung hero: the teacher, the nurse, the mother, the honest cop, the hard worker at lonely, underpaid, unglamorous, unpublicized jobs.”
—Daniel J. Boorstin (b. 1914)
