he most certainly afraid that his burial site could become some kind of shrine he was buried in the desert and gone in secret only four witnesses all of them swearing on the koran to never reveal the site of gadhafi is very old with that said a lot of secrecy surrounding this of course a lot of mystery still surrounding his death and the way he was killed it's something not so much being spoken about here in tripoli in the rest of libya but certainly from the outside people are analyzing about whether or not that was the right way to do it some people we've spoken to here are saying that he should have been treated as a prisoner of war and put to trial and now with him being buried today it needs to be pointed out that it was completely not in accordance with islamic law and he was on display for some of those days in a shopping center after being kept you know walk in refrigerator for days so people could combine and take a look and see for themselves that gadhafi in fact is dead you see these pictures coming out of that site people actually wearing masks because obviously the smell
5:02 am
despite the fact that he was being refrigerated was getting to the people long lines of libyans waiting to see for themselves that moammar gadhafi was finally killed he's been put to rest now and the first some of the first announcements that we're hearing in fact from the n.t. you see we heard some from the head about the fact that he believes that gadhafi as well should have been kept alive and tried but also announcements coming out from. one of his first announcement announcements not about rebuilding the country about what his party officials that will most likely be allowed to do in the election that is being promised in eight months but his first announcement that he sees the country moving towards should be a long which of course is a very hard by the way of leading the country and ironic that gadhafi in fact was was was the way he was killed these brutal pictures of the whole world watched and then now with this burial take you. place days after his death is completely the
5:03 am
opposite of the way a person no matter who they are is supposed to be buried according to islamic law so we should hear some analysis about that in the coming days as well but again huge challenges ahead for libya and while people here are certainly basking in the celebration of gadhafi is just a few of them it seems seems a really thinking about what that means for the future of the. cars of liberation are loud and clear. looks like a state of euphoria here and everybody is happy and you know. even though there is no formal you know law and order but are they ignoring the price paid for freedom in libya some thirty thousand civilians are said to have been killed with four thousand still missing this house was one of nato's misses a single family lost five people including children when. they pulled joyce to all
5:04 am
governments but no one toss who is going to rebuild my house who will compensate for all those much of the country's infrastructure has been destroyed finding water is now a serious challenge in the capital and we don't have supplies and try to collect what they can. have a family with six kids we need wood to do the leave and to come here every day and get water is very difficult. they're going to. be electric station and ben will eat for ten days they haven't fixed the problem at least we can come here for now. but maybe not much mongar. before the war libya could boast one of the best living standards on the continent with high life expectancy and low tiled mortality rates but after months of heavy bombing and fierce fighting the country's social and economic achievements have been brutally reversed. it's people now betting on
5:05 am
a heavily armed and inexperienced group to govern them through a fresh start in the wake of destruction on the asked us not to reveal his face fearing who might pay for saying this. plot that if you talk or see anything positive about gadhafi you will have serious problems with the rebels there is no government speaking out on to the end of you he tells me if people were truly happy about the end of gadhafi and the way he was killed there would be millions not thousands on the streets to get their free movies i'm sure some sixty to seventy percent of the country does not approve of the way gadhafi was killed we expect them to be tried as a prisoner of war. and we are told a new libya there would be justice when he was the head of this country and there was no justice in the way he was killed i have no hope for the future but it's just the beginning don't you think that it could get better with time but things will take time to change in the country. i think there will be
5:06 am
a lot of fighting in the future and right now in your mom's warner there is fighting going on between tribes and anyone with a weapon as power who can do what they want. so many celebrate this new error in libya's history people like on the car quietly bracing for the worst. and he's now artsy tipperary if you want to have your say on our top story the analog on dorothy dot com where we are asking why that offie was killed the vast majority of the if gadhafi is dead because he could have exposed dirty dealings in libya by western governments and corporations twelve percent think nato just went out of my life for more aerial strikes a slightly larger number of people believe gadhafi is to blame for his own death because of the way he treated his people others say he was killed because manny and t.c. members were his former subordinates cast your vote. meanwhile human rights watch has called in the new we've been. sorties to investigate what
5:07 am
they think could have been a massacre of cut off you know loyalists and seared fifty three dead bodies manny with their hands tied behind their backs were discovered at an abandoned hotel in the city political blogger karl rove says the interim government has little control over fighters on the ground you can see the tension between the and to see. some of the more islamist led groups on the ground and in fact if you see some of the fighters in the ground they have the characteristics of islamist fighters the long . history of from afghanistan on wards so this illusion and identity has full control on the ground is not actually correct maybe another party in libya could have presented the evolution of the us the nation's that's been the legitimate aspirations for change but there is that and then in d.c. that still has a lot of former gadhafi associates and cronies within it so that's really the nub of the problem. well another country affected by the arab spring syria is still
5:08 am
seeing widespread unrest but the government has promised to meet some of the key to mans and implement crucial reforms within six months a record short period of time according to sirius foreign minister his explosive interview with r.t. is coming up next hour by here's a look at what he had to say. the country's leadership is not slowing down reforms and the deadline set by the syrian president are very short and in less than six months but the country will see these reforms carried out that is why i'm asking that if the opposition really cares for the future of this country why it wouldn't begin dialogue as they had some serious approaches to creating a new syria as for the bloodshed but let me ask you whether there's a regime anywhere in the world whose purpose is to kill its own citizens or rather to you isn't its direct purpose to protect its own citizens from terrorists when we are confronted with an armed terrorist groups who have nothing to do with reform
