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
3:07 pm
in public in march 20th levon i just thought of that evolution of. 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
3:08 pm
3:09 pm
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 man you was a public prosecutor 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
3:10 pm
a group which now tracks alleged crimes committed in their homeland. the video evidence brought to him by matt is shocking. so much to get published. that's a mistake to believe to call a. marine one of the. emoticon for the office if you do have he. what do you think you've addressed by this letter when you video just going to. the to be deployed look so. just so.
3:11 pm
said he said the landlady. said you know. he's sort of cleared of the kid yeah and they're really going to think you have to get out of. stuff and if you think. i'm a lot you know my lot in the cuttack a mother i'm a father can be a really. really good to see that kind of pain and. so to be with my father going to kill us no. doubt a few of. the one as a. kid. was i got. the $100.00 out of it kind of how do we deal with the fullest. but that was not the familiar
3:12 pm
theme of course to do. so if you will the polluted. and the you know we can you know know that you can change. well into the whole kitchen much of a lead on a mock. quiz finesse called when you want to step in but you still miss that city if you get out maybe looks the magic to know life learned south last maybe looks election day out of government yes i've got a good action and up above the bottom of the flight you have your pov on something . i will look will you see that. instead it would. have been going after your conscience on a mission. in libya reap is such a taboo that is simply not open for discussion.
3:13 pm
i meant is 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 mad 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 the a c. . she thought she was he would be looking for. a local school. i was.
3:14 pm
looking. for years just 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 think when a softness on his left wrist hate it was never going to.
3:15 pm
3:16 pm
he talked about men raped and then released defiled men whom no one ever mentions. so 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 that the men asked. why let's down the list. so why you. see them just a lot better than just some say yes let. me. wish wish a little high enough so it can. every day
