Aisha Gaddafi, the daughter of the slain Libyan leader, has called for the overthrow of Libya's interim government in an audio message aired on Syrian-based Arrai television.

"Avenge the blood of your martyr. Revolt against the new government," she said in the remarks broadcast yesterday.

Aisha fled to Algeria in August along with her mother and two of her brothers.

They were allowed to enter the country on humanitarian grounds.

She stressed that her father Muammar Gaddafi, who was killed on October 20 after his capture by forces loyal to the National Transitional Council, "did not abandon" Libya's people.

Her comments are thought to be in violation the an exile agreement with Algeria to refrain from any political activity.

However she already made similar comments back in September, when she denounced the NTC as "traitors" and called on the Libyan people to rise up against the new rulers.
