UK's Hague in Libya says Gaddafi must be captured
17 October 2011, Monday / AP, TRIPOLI
Britain's foreign secretary called Monday
on African countries to turn over wanted senior members of Muammar Gaddafi's regime found on their territory, saying it was very important that the deposed Libyan leader and his associates be brought to justice.
William Hague made the comments during a visit to Tripoli in which he confirmed the new British ambassador and presided over a flag-raising ceremony at Britain's charred embassy building, which had been attacked by Gaddafi supporters angry over NATO airstrikes.
"This is further recognition of the great progress the National Transitional Council has made in stabilizing Libya and re-establishing the country's role as a full member of the international community," Hague told reporters, referring to the body ruling the country in the transitional period.
He also offered more humanitarian aid and raised concerns about reports of human rights abuses by revolutionary forces during a meeting with Libya's interim leader Mustafa Abdul-Jalil.
Gaddafi remains on the run and fighting with his supporters continues on two fronts more than two months after Tripoli fell to revolutionary forces. Some believe he might try to flee to another African country since he cultivated good relations with many of them during his more than four decades in power.
The International Criminal Court has accused the ousted leader along with his son Seif al-Islam and his former intelligence chief Abdullah al-Senoussi of crimes against humanity for unleashing a campaign of murder and torture in an attempt to crush the uprising that broke out in mid-February.
Hague said it was
"very, very important" to bring the men to justice and promised Britain would continue to help in the search, although he didn't elaborate on what was being done.
"We've already been very active reminding other countries in Africa of their responsibility, their responsibility to apprehend and to hand over to the Libyans or to the International Criminal Court any of these people who go onto their territory," he said. "Of course we don't know where all of them are but we will continue to assist in looking for them."
