WASHINGTON, Jan 21: A bipartisan group of US lawmakers on Wednesday said they were preparing to travel to Libya to meet President Muammar Qadhafi in the first such official visit since Mr Qadhafi came to power in 1969.

Six members of the US House of Representatives are to leave this weekend on the trip that comes after Tripoli volunteered last month to abandon its weapons of mass destruction programmes in a bid to shed its status as a pariah state.-Reuters
