On August 30, Amnesty International (AI) headlined, "Libya: Fears for Detainees Held by Anti-Gaddafi Forces," saying:
Black Africans are especially at risk. AI representatives "witness(ed their) being targeted in Tripoli on Monday."
"Within an hour, (AI saw) one man being hit and (another) dragged out of his hospital bed to an unknown fate. We have to fear for what may be happening to detainees out of the sight of independent observers."
On August 29, Canada's Globe and Mail writer Graeme Smith headlined, "Atrocities raise concerns about Libyan rebels' ability to control country," saying:
