Who is Idris bin Abdullah al-Senussi?

Idris bin Abdullah al-Senussi is an exiled Libyan opposition figure and a claimant to the headship of the Sanussiyyah movement. He started claiming to be heir to the Libyan throne in 1989, though recently stated that if the old Constitution of Libya was restored post-Gaddafi, there would be free elections and the people would be united under the constitution with "some modifications where the part of the monarch will be taken out" and the people would be able to elect a head of state, who could be called "president or whatever they want to call him". The position of heir to the throne is also claimed by Prince Mohammed El Senussi, the son and designated heir of the last Libyan Crown Prince. Idris al-Senussi returned to Libya on December 23 and stated he will not be active in politics or campaigning for the monarchy. He returned to Libya in December 2011 with his cousin, Ahmed Zubair Al-Senussi.
