Libyan jails and have
recorded 27 deaths because of torture since 2011.
Torture and brutality are
more commen in Libyan prisons two years after the overthrow of leader Muammar
Gaddafi. Around 8,000 prisoners are held without trial in government jails
because of suspicion of having fought
for Gaddafi. "Torture and ill-treatment in Libya is an on-going and
widespread concern in many detention centres," said the report from the
U.N.'s top human rights office.
The paper
explained cases of men, some hauled off the street on the way to work or in
their homes without explanation , and how they were beaten and raped with
bottles or large bullets and left without food in filthy jails.
