The Office for the UN High Commissioner on Human Rights is calling for a probe of Colonel Gaddafi’s death.
Now it’s true there is a UN human rights probe underway with regard to allegations of torture committed on the part of the former Gaddafi regime.

That the UN would want to probe Gaddafi’s death should come as no surprise. After all, Libya won a seat on the UN Human Rights Council in 2010 and prior to its suspension earlier this year was about to be praised by that same body for its human rights record.
