but he shot gadhafi twice during his capture the clay was supported by a post-mortem was discovered two bullet holes in the colonel's body the country is now due to hold elections within the next eight months to draft a constitution and former new government how are they posed to conduct a future looks so certain as ethnic and tribal divisions emerge among levens once united in the evolution of seasons to now is in tripoli with more. not so long ago it was handshakes and hugs now it's his head. and his family have a lot of tales to tell about foreign involvements and fact that though he was always portrayed as a great guy you also played a lot of footsie and banking with the western powers. graphic gruesome footage of gadhafi went viral as news of his death spread after months of being number one on nato was hit list under the banner humanitarian mission. we came we saw he died. haven't you can to deal with your visit.
8:02 pm
libyans and to see claims he was killed in crossfire but edited video begs to differ shown here clearly wiping blood from his head then clearly dead look at the footage shown on t.v. proves that he was captured alive and wounded and after that he was killed. global pressure is growing for an investigation to find out if gadhafi died as clinton put it or was executed the u.n. human rights organization should all push not only for investigation of the death of gadhafi and certainly the. many other libyan members of the. that supported. but also the bombings that nato inflicted in libya the droid so many of libya's infrastructure and also so many libyan civilians who died
8:03 pm
in the u.s. who were killed in the. alliance officials claim the mission in libya is coming to him and the no fly zone will be reviewed at the u.n. security council but many believe this is only the end of gadhafi and the beginning of a new era of crisis libya is in for a period of horrendous chaos after the nato by. i mean that's brought parts of libya back to the stone age some say the race for the country's oil has kicked off france is already demanding thirty five percent of libya's gross national gross oil production and i suspect that the people of libya will be furious and outraged that they are paying france for having bombed the infrastructure having destroyed the schools the hospitals the the water supply and a country united in hatred for gadhafi might not stand together now that he's gone all these these different groups who were held together but one thing and that was

. there is this footage of him apparently in the back of a truck in the town surrounded by a very angry mob but the assumption i guess is that he was killed by this mob sometime shortly after that he should have been treated as a prisoner of war take him interviewed interrogated and put on trial and then they do process would have taken place already looks when he was indeed killed in the back of a truck and this really does raise some question marks about the command the discipline of the t.n.c. forces and what libya is going to be like not just tomorrow but next month next year and in the next ten years because clearly there is a need for a stable government in libya there is a need for a democratic government in libya there is need for an investigation into human rights difficulties and abuses in the past but there's an awful lot of there's an awful lot of irregular forces out there otherwise the alternative is some ghastly descent into war with all the many armaments that there are there already in libya
