Is Khamis Gaddafi dead? Really really dead that is. The question is still making the rounds exactly a year after the fall of his father Libyan dictator Muammar Al Gaddafi.

Journalist Mary Fitzgerald tweets:

@MaryFitzgeraldIT: After day of rumours #Libya national congress spox has told local TV channel Gaddafi's son Khamis was captured injured today & died later

And she adds:

@MaryFitzgeraldIT: Given Gaddafi's son Khamis reported captured/dead several times over past 20 months, not surprising many are waiting to see evidence #Libya

The LibyanYouthMovement remarks:

@ShababLibya: We will wait for pictures and continue to update everyone on the story. We all thought Khamis was dead! #Libya

And Huda notes:

@hudduh: Khamis has died more times than Kenny. Waiting for the inevitable mobile phone footage to confirm his capture/death. #Libya

NPR senior strategist Andy Carvin tweets:

@acarvin: Show us Khamis Gaddafi. Prove it. Until you do, he'll remain Kayser Soze. #libya

Meanwhile, Iyad El-Baghdadi predicts:

@iyad_elbaghdadi: Some douchebag creates & circulates a photoshopped image of dead Khamis #Gaddafi in 3… 2… #Libya

And Libyan AletheiaLibya comments:

@AletheiaLibya: If #Gaddafi “lives forever in the heart of Libyans”, it's only fair that Moussa Ibrahim & Khamis should live forever in #Libya's prisons.

Moussa Ibrahim was Gaddafi's spokesman. News reports today say he was captured in Tarhouna, south of the capital Tripoli.

Journalist Jenan Moussa calls for reason:

@jenanmoussa: Guys guys stop spreading rumors. I confirm that no one in #Libya can confirm news right now about Khamis Gaddafi

Only time will tell if Khamis Gaddafi will meet his father's fate anytime soon.
