CNNTripoli, Libya -- Eman al-Obeidy, the woman who says forces loyal to Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi raped her, is grateful for support she has received, said CNN's Nic Robertson, who met briefly with her Wednesday.
"She is a very strong lady who told me to thank all (the) people who have stopped her case from disappearing," Robertson said.
Al-Obeidy said she had a message for humanitarian organizations: They should come to Tripoli and "see how life is here," he said.
She said she is still recovering physically from the alleged assault and displayed faded bruises and rope burn marks on her wrists, Robertson said. But, she told him, she is unable to leave Tripoli and be reunited with her family and faces abuse whenever she leaves her house, he said.
