Libya’s female prisoners have appealed to the country’s spiritual leaders to allow them to commit suicide as endless abuse and humiliation make life unbearable for them
...
Women suffer horrible torture in Libyan jails. They are burned, subject to electric shocks and placed in solitary cells for weeks or months on end. Women have long been complaining to us about that. We’ve been receiving letters revealing absolutely appalling episodes. Prison wards sell female inmates, letting men rape any woman they choose for a certain pay. Rape victims say that once important people from Qatar came and the prison was turned into a brothel.
...
One woman witnessed how 26 "dirty beasts" raped her cellmate one by one. She lost consciousness but that didn’t stop them. The following day, she died.

I’m guessing that things are considerably worse since we helped topple the stable government and let the islamists fight for supremacy.

Perhaps they could appeal to Anthony Bourdain.
He thinks everything is peachy keen there since the fall of Gaddafi.

Another humanitarian triumph for the Islamphilic Bastard in the White House.

These people who run these jails were put into power by the Obama Administration using our tax dollars. This is not an isolated case. This is typical of what they do.

Bammy is all wee weed up over income inequality. No time for people being raped to death.
Much more important to take resources from the productive and hand to the non productive, hoping to buy votes. Death by rape is not on his radar.

Qaddafi himself ran a sex slave house...for boys and girls..
His all female guard was a canard for impress the quilible western media that he was for womens rights...
