Hannibal Gaddafi, (also spelled Khadaf) is the son of Libyan dictator Moammar Gaddafi. Hannibal, who also goes by the name Moutassim, has a history of violence against women. In 2005 he was arrested for punching his wife Aline Skaf (charges were not pressed). In 2008, Hannibal and Skaf were both arrested and accused of beating their servants. The charges were dropped and the servants reportedly received compensation.http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2010/01/05/hannibal-gaddafi-pays-bey_n_411602.html
