Libya: Families call on NTC for compensation

Many Libyans lost their lives fighting against Muammar Gaddafi's forces during the conflict.

The NTC has promised to look after the victim's families, but that may take some time, as the state's unfrozen funds are yet to trickle in, and security is still a top priority.
