Ambassador demands Libya probe into human rights
Morning Star Foreign Desk 12 01 05

Incoming UN security council president Baso Sangqu called on Wednesday for an investigation into human rights abuses committed during Nato's bombing campaign on Libya.
Mr Sangqu, the UN ambassador for South Africa which holds the council's rotating presidency this month, said he believed the Western military alliance had overstepped its mandate in enforcing a so-called no-fly zone, killing an untold number of innocent civilians.
"We were alive to the fact that the implementation of the resolution itself would have its own problems, but we now hear strong voices that talk about many mistakes that were made," Mr Sangqu said.
"They were supposed to be precision strikes, but it was clear that those were not that precise."
Mr Sangqu said UN human rights officials are currently conducting investigations on the ground.
But he insisted that it must not only be Gadaffi supporters that are investigated but also human rights abuses "by the rebels, by Nato, anybody who was involved in that conflict."
Mr Sangqu, speaking in his capacity as South Africa's UN representative, said he believed the security council resolution that his country supported had authorised a no-fly zone but did not mean "regime change or anything else."
Russia has also called for an independent UN investigation of civilian casualties.
Nato spokeswoman Oana Lungescu said: "We took every precaution to minimise the risk to civilians.
"We repeatedly warned civilians to stay away from military installations and equipment"
