"Certainly, the best scenario is to have him before the court, to prosecute him and to know from him everything about the crimes he committed before, whether it is the genocide of the prison of Abu Saleem or the genocide he is committing now or the disappearance of certain important personalities, and all the other crimes he has committed during the 42 years in power in Libya."

“当然，最佳方案就是将卡扎菲押上法庭，对他进行控告，了解他以前犯下的所有罪行，无论是在阿布萨利姆(Abu Salim)监狱的种族灭绝行为，还是现在一些重要人物的失踪，以及他在统治利比亚42年的时间内犯下的所有罪行。”

An army colonel in the Democratic Republic of Congo has been sentenced to 20 years in jail for ordering his troops to commit mass rape. Here's our Africa correspondent Andrew Harding.

刚果民主共和国一名上校因纵容士兵进行大规模强奸而被判处20年监禁。我们的非洲记者Andrew Harding报道。

Colonel Kibibi Mutware's troops attacked the village of Fizi on New Year's Day following a dispute with a local shop owner. The government soldiers raped more than 60 women. For years, this kind of violence has been almost a norm in eastern Congo, a vast region, where rival armies and militias prey with impunity on civilians. But this time, a mobile court paid for by foreign donors was sent to the area. Not only were the colonel and his deputies put on trial, but crucially 49 women agreed to give evidence. It's the first time a commanding officer has been convicted of rape, a precedent that many hope will deter future crimes and strengthen the rule of law.
