the regional body will decide whether it continues after its un to intervene. and romania is gripped by mass protesters frustrated crowds demand an end to the government's austerity measures and corruption and call for the president to go some thinks two people were injured in violent clashes among protesters and police in the capital. now libya maybe trying to move on from forty years of colonel gadhafi but his children are demanding justice next the lawyer of the late leader's daughter explained start why his death still hasn't been investigated. the daughter of all former libyan dictator moammar gadhafi has hired an israeli noire to force the international criminal court to investigate the full circumstances of her father's day as you could call thank you very much for joining us here on r t why have you agreed to take on the case of i should gadhafi. has

a different complaint her father was murdered in the 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 was a war crime which is the case stand at the moment well at the moment i've written to the prosecutor i've asked him whether or not he turns on the investigating that i received or applied the reply was essentially that we're going to see what they may be more for two years do about it will give them about five months by the time my next report to the security council will see what they've done. my view is that that's in fact and even too late this is not the sort of. 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. herself has also made enough occasion for victims status in a situation in certain situations 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 don't believe the authorities as they stand at present the will the capacity to carry out such best to gratian and that's why we're calling for the investigation to be conducted immediately and the international criminal court issued a warrant to persecute gaddafi 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. 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 libyan authorities has put forward a concrete plan for bringing that say for example safely. to justice and prosecuting him. 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 and conduct and prosecuted before the international criminal court for your experience in what can the international criminal court in doing if it was willing well. don't forget that 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 will 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 any 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 algerian authorities 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 all her plans seeking asylum anywhere else. can comment on that at

the present moment in time is she following what's happening with her brother safe of course she is and it's seriously concerned. she regrets the fact that safely 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 for the present moment in time to make me believe that a fair and effective trial can be conducted in libya based on the fact that the libyan authorities were ordered by the international criminal court to file a response to the. pre-trial chamber hundred in the matter of safety by the tenth of january information concerning safe state is what the libyan authorities intentions with respect to him polygonal forty's requested payment for fighting their response citing security concerns my belief is that if the security concerns

are so serious that they prevent 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 and effective 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 too late to conduct these various 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. your question implies or even impute certain amount of bad faith on the part of the office of the prosecutor and you 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. 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 can it be established that only of course the truth can be established and if the office of the prosecutor was 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 are fully qualified to investigate and let's not forget the office of the prosecutor contains the best

investigators in the world they have the trust of 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 it would involve taking detail statements from objective and independent witnesses who would also involve for example a proper autopsy of mormon gadhafi himself and more possibly gadhafi now one question i do have is why right after the murder. the office of the prosecutor didn't volunteer want to be 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 recal flynn thank you very much for talking to us here on r.t. you're welcome.
