cuts taxes and deteriorating living standards sixty people have been injured with rage mainly focused on the president. while the me a might have been fast to shake off forty years of colonel gadhafi legacy his children are demanding justice next a lawyer of the late leader's daughter explains to r t why the death still hasn't been investigated. the daughter of former libyan dictator muammar gadhafi has hired and is raiding noir to force the international criminal court to investigate the full circumstances of her father's day at the cafe kaufman thank you very much for joining us here on r t why have you agreed to take on the case of i should ask who has a legitimate complaint her father was murdered in a brutal fashion. the whole world saw it. prosecutor the international criminal court has an obligation to investigate all aspects of the conflict which was

referred to him by the united nations security council. and that would include also the murder of normal gadhafi especially since the prosecutor himself has stated that there are grounds to believe that this is a war crime where does the case stand at the moment at the moment i've written to the prosecutor i have asked him whether or not he intends on me investigating it i received a reply the reply was essentially that we're going to see what the libyan authorities do about it will give them about five months and by the time i make my next report of the security council we'll see what they've done. my view is that that symphony even too late this is not the sort of investigation which can be put off for five months it's a complex investigation there's a need to examine the crime scene to perform forensic ballistic analysis to take evidence from objective witnesses all these sort of things have to be done it's not

the sort of investigation that you can put off just for five months and see what happens is there any way that you can speed up the investigation well i can keep on writing and pestering as it were the prosecutor see how far that gets me. has also made an application for victims status in the situation in certain cities. that can actually give her procedural rights. examining whether or not from a legal point of view that would allow her to petition the court in order to speed up the investigative process why is the international criminal court so reluctant to speed up the investigation. the general rule of the i.c.c. what's called the rule of complementarity that means that domestic state authorities if they are capable of performing an investigation should be left to do so in the present instance we do. know for these as they stand at present the will capacity to carry out such best to gratian and that's why we're calling for the

investigation to be conducted immediately the international criminal court issued a warrant to persecute gadhafi in june of last year and then in october he was killed shouldn't the i.c.c. be willing to what happened to the suspect i would only investigation despite what the libyan government says and does. it's an obligation on the office of the prosecutor to investigate all aspects of the conflict. at the present moment in time no one from the nuclear facilities put forward a concrete plan for bringing that say for example safe. to justice and prosecuting him under the rule of law given that that's in fact the case i would have thought that the obligation rests with the office of the prosecutor to ensure that the libyan affair as i may call it investigated the conduct and prosecuted

before the international criminal court for your experience what can the international criminal court do if it was willing. first of all i'm in the hands of the prosecutor at this present moment in time. once should get victim status before the court in the situation in the libyan situation. that of course is subject to the decision of the judges then i would examine whether or not there are legal grounds for requesting the judges to intervene and to expedite the investigative process what is your interaction with ice and how is she doing. daily interaction with her situation is not simple she is currently under some form of restriction on her freedom of association on the other hand she is grateful to the algerian authorities for offering her some form of humanitarian protection. she's been

traumatized by the the murder of her brother i must add. to brutal murders which were witnessed by the whole world on various video clips she's with her mother and two brothers in a sense of how they all faring well i am in contact with least one other member of the family as i said it's not easy for them on the one hand they are grateful for the humanitarian protection which has been offered them by the juvenile forty's i don't know how the guests in the country by force of circumstances they don't have complete freedom of association complete freedom of movement so the situation is a complex one at all who is seeking asylum anywhere else i can't comment on that at the present moment in time following what's happening with her brother safe of course she is and it's seriously concerned. she regrets the fact that safe hasn't been afforded legal representation at this moment in time. and she hopes that it

will happen in the very near future do you think that say al islam will get a fair trial in libya once again it's a very sensitive issue there is nothing to the present moment in time to make me believe that a fair and effective trial come because it is. based on the fact that the libyan. forty's work for that by the international criminal court to file a response to the. pre-trial train behind in the matter say for the by the tenth of january. information concerning safe status and. these intentions with respect to him polygonal forty's requested payment for filing their response citing security concerns or my belief is that if the security concerns are so serious that they prevented the libyan authorities from filing a response to a court order then the necessary conclusion i have to draw is that the same

security considerations would prevent a fair ineffective trial in other words the libyan authorities should be ensuring safely is one hundred over to the hague in accordance with the arrest warrant could the fact that the whole investigation is taking so long be a red herring to make gadhafi is there to get away with us. the only person who has been seized of my request for an immediate investigation at this moment in time is the prosecutor. to question employees or even a certain amount of bad faith on the part of the office the prosecutor who said that i didn't i contemplate it on the evidence which i have available to me at the present moment in time. i have to assume that the prosecutor is. in the best interests of his office. of his investigation. and his mandate

the fact that i don't agree with that is another matter what really needs to be done to establish the truth and cannot be established at all when of course the truth can be established and if the office of the prosecutor were sufficiently serious he would have initiated an immediate investigation especially bearing in mind that the prosecutor has gone on the record and stated that this was in fact a potential war crime. we shouldn't be sitting here today talking about why is an investigation taking place it should have started a few days after the murder itself. given this on the very same day what does it really take to investigate a crime like this well this is a complex investigation it's a crime of murder. it's a crime which the investigators in the office of prosecutor fully qualified to investigate let us not forget the office of the prosecutor contains the best investigators in the world they have the truth the best investigators in the world and so as i previously stated it would involve forensic analysis of the crime scene

it would also involve a ballistic analysis of the crime scene he would involve taking detail statements from objective and independent witnesses he would also involve for example a proper autopsy of mormon gadhafi himself and some gadhafi now one question i do have is why right after the murder. the office of the prosecutor didn't volunteer one of its own forensic pathologist at least to assist in the performance of the autopsy well that didn't happen but as i said it's a complex investigation but by no means it's not an investigation of the of the prosecutor couldn't occur immediately. thank you very much for talking to us here on r.t. . just
