Zintan calls for fair detainee trials
- 12 years ago
In Zintan, the second Libyan city to rise up
against Colonel Muammar Gaddafi,residents are
collecting data to be used as evidence in legal cases against members of Gaddafi's regime, including his now captured son, Saif al-Islam.
The compilation of the digital data, cell phone recordings and still photographs, is in keeping
with the Libyan sentiment that Saif and Abdullah al-Senussi, the elder Gaddafi's intelligence chief, must be tried in Libya.
To ensure that these trials do in fact take place,
Saif is being held in a secret location so that he
can be tried alive in Libya.
