ICC to open investigation against alleged crimes against humanity by Gaddafi

With all of the technology available today, the ICC should have a lot to work with quickly. Al Jazeera:

Mr Ocampo, at a news conference, will name names, people to be targetted in a full scale inquiry into possible crimes against humanity. It is almost impossible to think the Colonel will not be top of the list.

As well as presenting "preliminary information as to the entities and persons who could be prosecuted", the prosecutor will "put them on notice to avoid future crimes".

Human Rights Watch says hundreds have been killed in the crackdown against the revolt which began last month, and tens of thousands of people are desperately trying to get out of the country.

Mr Ocampo only began working on Libya after the United Nations Security Council asked the ICC to establish if there were grounds for a full investigation.
