The district attorney of the International Penal Court requested yesterday that the judges emit arrest warrants against Muammar al Gaddafi and two members of his regime. Luis Moreno-Ocampo, the Argentinean district attorney, stated that Gaddafi, his son Seif al-Islam Gaddafi, and the chief of intelligence Abdulah al-Sanusi, were responsible of illegal attacks.
Gaddafi is being accused of shooting against unarmed demonstrators with sharpshooters. During a funeral march, Gaddafi again ordered to assassinate them. After these actions the International Penal Court is studying the evidence to emit the international arrest warrants.
The investigation began on March 3 due to the crimes against humanity performed since February. The chief of Italian diplomacy, Franco Frattini, believes that “the hours of the Libyan regime are numbered.”
