London, Jul 1: A prominent member of the Saudi royal family is defending his handling of the 2005 sale of a jet to the late Libyan leader Moammar Gaddafi in a London court.
Prince Alwaleed bin Talal is being sued by a Jordanian businesswoman who claims she is owed a 6.5 million pound ($9.9 million) commission for helping arrange the sale.
Appearing in the High Court on Monday, Alwaleed denied that he had agreed to pay a specific commission to consultant Daad Sharab.
She claims the prince, a nephew of King Abdullah, agreed to the commission during a meeting at Gadhafi's tent in Libya.
