Major Abdul Salam Jalloud was the right-hand man of Col. Muammar Qaddafi of Libya. He visited Iran to present Qaddafi's congratulations to the new regime after the Iranian Revolution.1
During his visit, Jalloud was questioned by his Iranian hosts about the fate of Sheikh Mussa Sadr, a Shi'ite leader from southern Lebanon, who had disappeared on a visit to Libya in 1978. The Libyans were believed to have killed Sadr for preaching Shi'ite Islam. Jalloud was not allowed to leave Iran for three weeks until Qaddafi personally intervened and spoke to Khomeini.1
