Al Jazeera Airs Graphic Gaddafi Cell Phone Death Video (NSFW)

A gory video televised by Al Jazeera showed overthrown Libyan leader Muammar Gaddafi being dragged through the streets, hemorrhaging blood with a wound to his head. The video appears to show rebels cheering in a crowded street amongst Gaddafi’s bedraggled corpse.

Journalist Marisa Guthrie reports the explicit footage was taken by one of the rebels on his cell phone, according to Al Jazeera’s James Bays.

“Bays was reporting from Tripoli’s Green Square, where raucous celebrations were well underway,” reports Guthrie. “In the video, which takes place in Gadhafi’s home town of Sirte, the body is set upon by jubilant rebels.”
