Luis Moreno-Ocampo, the ICC prosecutor, told the UN Security Council on Wednesday that widespread and systematic attacks by Gaddafi's forces had been carried out and were continuing.
He said he would seek arrest warrants against the three Libyans who bear "the greatest criminal responsibility" for crimes against humanity committed in retaliation to pro-democracy uprisings.
Strong evidence of repeated shootings of peaceful protestors, as well as the "systematic" rape, arrest, torture and killing of other civilians had been discovered, Mr Moreno-Ocampo told the council.
"War crimes are apparently committed as a matter of policy," a report by his team of investigators said following a two-month inquiry.
Gaddafi unleashed a brutal crackdown on demonstrators who held protests against his despotic rule following the wave of uprisings across the middle east earlier this year.
The country has since descended into civil war in which thousands of people have been killed. Nato forces are engaged in air strikes against facilities in Tripoli.
"The victims who were shot at by the security forces were unarmed civilians and there is no evidence of any attack against the security forces," Mr Moreno-Ocampo said in New York.
"There are at least two eyewitnesses for each incident, documents, and, in many cases, corroboration of details by pictures or video."
Mr Moreno-Ocampo did not identify the three individuals set to face arrest warrants, but it is widely assumed that Gaddafi, the Libyan leader for the past 42 years, will be among them. Abdullah Senussi, Gaddafi's brother-in-law and intelligence chief, may also be included.
The prosecutor is expected to name those involved when presenting his case to the ICC's pre-trial chamber in The Hague later this month.
It will either issue arrest warrants, reject the application or ask for more evidence. If ever arrested and convicted, Gaddafi faces multiple life sentences.

Trong 42 năm cầm quyền, độc tài Gadhafi đã giết bao nhiêu người dân Libya ?
Bản chất của những tên độc tài là KHÁT MÁU, giết người không gớm tay .
Sớm muộn gì cũng phải đền tội .
Bè lũ Việt gian CƯỚP NƯỚC phản quốc DIỆT CHỦNG BÁN NƯỚC ĐỘC tài ĐỘC đảng csVN ngòai những TỘI ÁC vượt xa cả độc tài Gadhafi, csVN còn thêm TỘI BÁN NƯỚC .
Ngày nào Quốc Dân VN đồng lọat đứng lên LẬT ĐỔ bè lũ buôn nòi bán giống phản quốc DIỆT CHỦNG, ngày đó bè lũ csVN sẽ nếm mùi của hậu quả TỘI ÁC chúng đã gây ra cho dân tộc VN .
Dù có được những thế lực "vô minh", hay quyền uy "thần thánh" bao che TỘI ÁC, dù ba đầu sáu tay csVN vẫn không thể thóat khỏi sự TRỪNG PHẠT.
Đảng csVN và bè lũ tay sai sẽ PHẢI mang vết NHỤC đời đời trong dòng Sử Việt.
