I wonder what is in store for men like these, who stuck with Moammar Gadhafi to the very end.

In the wake of Gadhafi's death, Human Rights Watch issued a statement urging the National Transitional Council (NTC) to speak out against revenge attacks and "end an extraordinarily long era of human rights abuses":

The NTC should ensure that its forces treat all suspects in custody humanely and bring them before a judge, in accordance with international human rights and humanitarian law.

The people of Libya need prompt reassurance that 42 years of abuses will not go unpunished, no matter how long the process may take, but that the process will be fair and open.
