9:05 am
there is no such thing as a clean war war allows every kind of atrocity. rape is a shocking but increasingly common consequence of war. collateral damage. a side effect of the fight. but there's evidence that it is now used as a military strategy. of all war crimes great
9:06 am
is the most difficult to cover making it the perfect crime. in bosnia rwanda that there are critics republic of congo and syria women and children have usually been the main targets but in pre and post revolution libya it's men has often been the main victims but no one has ever been able to prove that. in libya rape is a taboo subject mentioned the word silence prevailed. one woman did speak out
9:07 am
in public in march 20 levon i just thought of that evolution. that. the man in our baby was accusing the gadhafi regime of raping opponents and how cry resonated around the world. gadhafi was overthrown but libya was plunged into a civil war. the rumors of rape continued and while the international community expressed concern this did not turn into action. libya is still in a state of political and social chaos and tens of thousands of refugees have fled many towards europe. it effectively has 2 rival governments militias rule the streets and the rumors of rape persist but no one
9:08 am
would confirm them. then a libyan magistrate now living in neighboring tunisia decided to speak out. on this given that leave you.
9:09 am
for. the next 7. give you. might out of school in law school i mean that's what i'm here to learn i mean my easy. money. mr moore how did you finish out of the enemy. in libya to madonna manual was a public persecutor in the chaos that followed the overthrow of gadhafi in october 2011 he said members of the opposition to jail for murder the very next day they were released and threatened to kill him so just. so he left libya. in tunis he has joined a group of libyan activist fellow exile. he's put together
9:10 am
a group which now tracks alleged crimes committed in their homeland. the video evidence brought to him by a man is shocking. so much to get published. that's a mistake to believe to call a. marine one of the. emoticon for all of this if you do have a sort of he. what do you think of address by this letter a new video i just don't get of. the to be. look so. just so.
9:11 am
said he said the landlady. said you know. he sort of communicative yeah and then. the thing you have to get out of. stephan if you think. i'm a lot to my lot in the cuttack a mother i'm a father can be a really. really good to see that kind of training. so to be with my father going to kill us no. doubt a few $100.00. 100 as it. was i got. $100.00 out of kind of how do we deal with the fullest. but that was not the familiar theme of course to. do so if you would
9:12 am
a little bit. but you know we can you know you can try. well into the whole kitchen much of a lead on a mock. quiz for us called me would have to step couldn't you tell me that said if you get out maybe looks that made you know life lives are lost maybe looks election day out of government yes i've got a good action and up above the bottom of the fly you have your pov on something. i will look cool you see. instead it would. have been administered your conscience on a mission. in libya reap is such a taboo that is simply not open for discussion.
9:13 am
i meant as a human rights activist operating on the ground but he's determined to bring the issue of rape out into the open. because he has received death threats a man carries his entire life in a suitcase and he never sleeps in the same place. one of his contacts is a man known simply as a sea. change or she will be will be looking for. a local school. i thought oh.
9:14 am
look this one. for years just see really inside but all the time he knew about men and women who had been raped and who needed help . in fact he was talking about himself. when the scene arrived in tunis he didn't want his identity revealed and his voice here is this guy. you know i think it will have a high with me and i did to want to you have to really. think i did it to me and i'm going to air this office office i just hate
9:15 am
it when it's never going to. lack of a high have you to feel. off. because. people at the people said you know me often enough for. anything. i have thought of we. could have taken any. testimony gradually revealed the horrors of a hidden war civilians rounded up on the street secret prisons and torture.
9:16 am
he talked about men raped and then released defiled men whom no one ever mentioned . i imagine the question was now how many of them were now wandering the streets of tunis before returning to libya and hiding their shame inside. and the women the men asked. them why let's down the list. so i. see them just a lot better than just some say yes. i looked this up my best. wish. a little high enough so it came.
9:17 am
every day a mad meets victims of abuses suffered in libya and meticulously records everything they say. but most refused to talk about great. this man in his ear had been imprisoned for 6 years. i mean do you have a sense of the got here. she shifts shift mommas of to. shake a north idea. limits to feel. god even when are you going to visit the work on the one about the little mother. on the area we.

9:19 am
metal and. when there will be a few support of. the ship lee. if it will mean you have been of that sea of metal to saw. what a book or in a family. like many others nazir simply avoids the question only revenge matters to him. but without official complaints and statements he may not count initiate any diggle proceedings the retrial remains empty the crime simply doesn't exist.
9:20 am

9:21 am
in 2013 she helped draft a law aimed at protecting rape victims under the gadhafi regime but that is just lation was never an act. by dates experience is that the war crimes do not simply go away if no legal action is taken they would continue to be committed. to. a team it's not just me. trying to do. a lot of. organizations. since ok since 20112011 there is
9:22 am
