About Iman al-Obeidi

Iman al-Obeidi (also spelled Eman al-Obeidy; Arabic: إيمان العبيدي pronounced [ʔiːˈmæːn əlʕʊˈbeːdi]; born circa 1982) is a former Libyan postgraduate law student who received worldwide media attention during the Libyan Civil War. This was because she burst into the restaurant of the Rixos Hotel in Tripoli and told the international press corps there that Libyan troops had beaten and gang-raped her. Her public statement challenged both the Gaddafi government and the taboo against discussing sex crimes in Libya.
