Re: USA Africa Dialogue Series - Shocking book reveals Muammar Gaddafi's sexual abuse of schoolgirls

Gentlemen,

I hope the story were true. When one is dead he cannot defend himself. 

Now that Gaddafi is no more any immoral allegations can be made against him. 

We hope those who new him much better could come forward to counter this negative picture of Gaddafi. 

It is good, however, to have a copy of the book and see more revelations of Gaddafi's secret immoral behavior.   

Segun Ogungbemi.

Colonel Gaddafi ordered the kidnap of schoolgirls who were then kept as sex slaves at  compound, according to a book on the dictator.

One girl, named Soraya, was kidnapped when she was 15 and held for five years in a basement at his six-mile long fortress just outside Tripoli.

She says she was violently raped, beaten and abused on an almost daily basis and saw similar abuse of other girls and boys.

Her story and those of others who say they were raped by the despot are told in the book Gaddafi's Harem: The Story Of A Young Woman And The Abuses Of Power In Libya by French Le Monde journalist Annick Cojean.Read More
