Everytime I protested that I was an innocent person and that I was wrongly accused, I was told that I was playing the victim. Of course, this title was reserved for my accusers who should be ashamed today. Even now, no one blames them. Nobody criticizes them. They are like sacred marble statues. On the contrary, I am still the one to be insulted, despised. Yet, I am the victim here, the only victim... victim of a "blind" and biased judge who definitely, wanted to ruin my life.

Sometimes, silence kills more than weapons. And you cannot hide if you are at peace with your conscience.

This is happening in Libya; but figuratively, it is the same way that I was "slaughtered" too, by what I would call "justice" just by euphemism. No proof, no trial so far. Yet I have already suffered the maximum penalty. Two detentions for a total duration of six and a half months. House arrest with electronic bracelet for twelve months. Obligation to show my ID card to the police station every week. Temporary suspension from my lawyer's position for four months. Prohibition to exercise my lawyer’s activity for eighteen months. Ineligibility for the duties of the Bar Council for five years. Closing of all my law firms since five years to date; and of all my bank accouts. For a long time, refusal of residence permit and visa for traveling. Loss of income for several years. Foreclosure and sale of my car. Burglary and theft of my scooter. Destruction of my image in the media. Deprivation of the affection of my beloved ones, spouse and children, for long, etc..

I must and I will speak, even at the risk of receiving the morals from all kinds of people whose own first stones would surely be useful on themselves.
