Rebels say they have video of people being mistreated

A trial is underway in the Netherlands to see if Moammar Gadhafi is allowing his forces to torture and rape women. This is a war crime and there enough evidence to come to the conclusion that it is really happening,
When reporters asked the Gadhafi administration to make a comment on the accusations they said they did not have a comment. However they are for an investigation for information.
Most of the videos that are being used for evidence are coming off of pro- Gadhafi forces cell phones. The court is having a problem however with getting all of the videos that they rebels are confiscating. There is one Rebel leader that was asking for all the cell phone to be brought to him. After getting them he is burning them
Why would he burn potential evidence against Gadhafi? Rape in Libya is not only seen as a bad thing for the women or girls that have been raped. It is a bad thing for the family as well. Instead of having to deal with it they would rather get rid of all the evidence.
This man was just trying to help the Families of the victims.
