Gaddafi's teen girl admits shooting 11 rebels at point blank range

Colonel Muammar Gaddafi's 19-year-old daughter has admitted to have killed 11 suspected rebel prisoners in the days leading up to the fall of the Libyan capital last week.

In a heavily guarded room at the Matiga military hospital in Tripoli, she admitted that she had shot the rebels at point-blank range, the Daily Mail reports.

"They told me if I didn't kill, it would be me who died. I killed the first one, then they would bring another one up to the room. He would see the body on the floor and look shocked. Then I would shoot him too. I did it from about a metre away," Nisreen Gaddafi said.

"I tried not to kill them ... I turned and shot without looking. But if I hesitated, one of the soldiers would flick off the safety catch of his own rifle and point it at me. I killed ten, perhaps 11, over three days,' she says, slowly and almost disbelievingly, counting the murders on her fingers. 'I don't know what they had done," she said, adding: "I never harmed anyone before the uprising began. I used to have a normal life."

Nisreen, who is now a prisoner of the rebels and in fear of her life, she started living with her mother in Tripoli after her parents split. She also claimed that one of her mother's friends called Fatma al Dreby, who was the leader of the female branch of Gaddafi's Popular Guards militia, forced her to join them.

She alleged that she was sexually abused by senior military figures, one of whom was the commander of the elite Tripoli brigade tasked with protecting Gaddafi himself.

"Fatma had an office at the 77 Brigade base and there was a room with a bed next door. One day, she summoned me and put me in that room by myself. Mansour Dau, who was the commander of 77 Brigade, then came in and shut the door," she said adding that she was raped.

"After it was over Fatma told me not to tell anyone, not even my parents. Every time Mansour came to the HQ he was given another girl by Fatma. She was given presents in return," Nisreen said.

Now that she has told her story to the rebels, she is scared for her life.
