A South African lady, Phumelele Dlamini, has taken to Twitter to share her plight after she was fired from her company after reporting a case of sexual harassment from one of her colleagues.
After reporting the case, all the directors reportedly heard about it and some of her other colleagues also attested to the culprit’s sexual harassment.

However, the culprit happens to be the head of a department as well as the go-to guy for all ‘CCMA cases for the entire group’. This meant that he was an asset to the company.
Dlamini recalled that even her husband had advised her against reporting the colleague because it was a multinational company and she would never win the case. He however promised to stand by whatever decision she made.
After reporting the case, the company reportedly told Dlamini to let them deal with it internally and for her not to speak about it to external bodies.
