The UN refugee agency says a Libyan woman who claimed she was raped by Gaddafi troops has arrived in Romania.
UNHCR spokeswoman Claudia Liute said on Tuesday that Iman al-Obeidi had arrived in Romania alone on a flight from Italy late on Sunday. Liute says the 29-year-old is staying in a refugee transit center in the western Romanian city of Timisoara where she can remain for up to six months.
Liute says she cannot provide more details.
Al-Obeidi’s sister has said she was on her way to the United States.
Al-Obeidi made headlines in March when she rushed distraught into Tripoli's Rixos Hotel, seeking to speak to foreign reporters and saying she was detained by a number of Gaddafi troops at a Tripoli checkpoint and raped. - Sapa-AP
