In Zintan, the second Libyan city to rise up against Colonel Muammar Gaddafi,residents are collecting data to be used as evidence in legal cases against members of Gaddafi's regime, including his now captured son, Saif al-Islam.

The compilation of the digital data, cell phone recordings and still photographs, is in keeping with the Libyan sentiment that Saif and Abdullah al-Senussi, the elder Gaddafi's intelligence chief, must be tried in Libya.

To ensure that these trials do in fact take place, Saif is being held in a secret location so that he can be tried alive in Libya.
