Stranded in Tripoli, scared and wrongly embroiled in a political scandal because of a piece of "scurrilous" gossip, Australian aid worker Alexandra Bean desperately needs the federal government's help, her brother says.
The 30-year-old, who has been working in Libya for the International Organisation for Migration for some months has now faced two intense four-hour sessions of questioning over rumours she was raped by a senior Libyan health official.
Ms Bean's brother James said his sister had had limited contact with the senior official, with no form of impropriety, before the official messaged her in July to say he was facing accusations of raping her.
Mr Bean, who is based in Canberra, said the gossip spawned several versions of the story, and that his sister, known as "Pippi", had approached the United Nations to inform them of the untrue accusations.
