Rape Victim Dragged Off by Libyan Forces
Libyan security forces dragged a woman away after she burst into a Tripoli hotel to tell journalists that Muammar Qaddafi’s forces had raped her. Sobbing, Eman al-Obeidy said she was held against her will and sexually assaulted by 15 men. Security forces moved to subdue the woman and a member of the hotel’s kitchen staff even drew a knife, calling her “traitor!” for criticizing Qaddafi. Her current whereabouts are unknown.
