Eman Al-Obeidy: Today I went to the court, and one of the employees in the court pulled his gun on me and said he was going to kill me. The people came and they held me. The whole day in court they were saying, “We are going to kill this failure who reports on our brigades.”
Al-Obeidy’s mother: Who is going to kill you? Who?
Al-Obeidy: An employee in the court, an employee in the court, an employee in the court. I can’t go out in the street.
Mother: If you didn’t leave they would have been able to get you, Eman.
Al-Obeidy: Mom, they won’t let me leave to Tobruk. I can’t, I can’t stay here any more.
Mother: Think, think, think, think with your sister to find a solution and bring you back before they kill you.
Al-Obeidy: Mom, I am scared. I can’t. Even at night when the lights are closed I dream all the people are screaming, all the people with him are dying. I dream of them trying to kill me.
A phone conversation between Eman Al-Obeidy and her mother, obtained exclusively by CNN. Conservation transcribed from AC360.
