I was surprised by his sudden passing. But, this is a case where his death did not bring closure to the hundred of thousand victims of his brutal regime who expected a fair trial where they could express their sorrow and the nation could symbolically, at the very least, put this ugly pass behind it. He was accused of crime against humanity.

The country now is torn between two sides and there is no unanimity regarding what to do about his funeral. Some of his allies in the actual regime want to honor him with a national funeral but the vast majority of the people are upset and oppose to this idea.
