Libya's fugitive ex-prime minister Ali Zeidan has flown to Germany in defiance of a travel ban after changing planes in Malta, Maltese government sources told AFP Wednesday. Zeidan arrived in Malta on a Libyan state plane Tuesday evening but then switched to a private jet after a brief stopover before departing for Germany, they said. That version of events differed slightly from the account given by Maltese Prime Minister Joseph Muscat in a television interview. "The plane stopped in Malta for two hours to refuel before proceeding to a**ther European country," Muscat said.
