Mass grave found with 1,270 bodies
[Emirates 24/7] Libyan revolutionary authorities say they have discovered a mass grave containing the remains of 1,270 inmates killed by the regime of Moammar Qadaffy
...a proud Arab institution for 42 years...
 in a 1996 prison massacre.
No doubt there will be a good deal more of this. He wasn't a very nice man, the dapper colonel.
The site was found near Tripoli's Abu Salim prison, where the victims were killed on June 26, 1996, after protesting conditions at the facility.

The announcement was made Sunday by Dr. Ibrahim Abu Sahima of the government committee overseeing the search for victims of the former regime.

He says Sherlocks found the grave two weeks ago after getting information from captured regime officials and witnesses.

Officials will ask for international assistance in identifying the remains.
