“He used to pull me towards him and touch my body. Once he sat me on his legs. I was afraid and didn’t report the incidents because I was new at work and he threatened to terminate me from my job,” the Filipina said in records.

She claimed that there was no dispute between the two and she had not provokes him at any time.

Finally, she reported the incidents to the head of human resources at the shop who informed the management and drew on surveillance camera footage before reporting the incident to Dubai Police.
