In a concerning development, yet another former employee of the Prime Minister's residence has initiated legal action against Sara Netanyahu, the wife of the Israeli Prime Minister, alleging a pattern of verbal abuse and discriminatory comments. According to reports from Hebrew media, Rami Ben Hamo, who dedicated over a decade of service at the Prime Minister’s Office and residence, claims that he was subjected to derogatory remarks, including being labeled an "unsophisticated Moroccan." This incident is not isolated; Ben Hamo's lawsuit details instances where he was required to perform menial tasks under humiliating conditions, such as cleaning the soles of Netanyahu's shoes with wet wipes.
The allegations further state that Ben Hamo was coerced into working excessive hours without legal compensation, and any failure to comply with her demands would result in severe verbal attacks and humiliation. These claims add to a troubling history for Sara Netanyahu, who has faced numerous accusations over the years for mistreating staff, resulting in previous compensatory rulings in court. Just last month, another former employee also filed a lawsuit against her.
The Netanyahu family has categorically denied these allegations, suggesting that they are politically motivated attempts to undermine Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's prospects in the forthcoming elections. This latest lawsuit raises significant questions about workplace conduct and the treatment of staff within high-profile governmental roles.
