4. Where is Eman al-Obeidi? Regime promised she would meet journalists "by Saturday"
Libyan government spokesman Mousa Ibrahim said "hopefully" two women journalists would meet with her by Saturday. It's now Sunday in Libya, and still no word...no news reports...

Here's one earlier report on the regime's promise (with that "hopefully" weasel word):




Alleged rape victim to meet with journalists, Libyan government says


By the CNN Wire StaffApril 1, 2011 5:47 a.m. EDT


Tripoli, Libya (CNN) -- A woman who was dragged away by Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi's officials after telling journalists that some of his troops had raped her will finally be seen by journalists in the coming days, a government spokesman said Thursday.

Eman al-Obeidy will "hopefully" be visited by two or three female journalists by Saturday, Mousa Ibrahim said.
