"In the years that followed Huda Ben Amer rose to become a senior official in Gadaffi's regime and one of his most trusted lieutenants. But now the Libyan people are seeking justice after Huda, one of their country's most feared and reviled women, was finally put behind bars. So she became a symbol of the regime's repression and also she rose very high in Gadaffi's government because he saw the trial and was impressed by the fervour of this then unknown woman."
