The man, a manager surnamed Liu, invited one of his new female staff into his office in southwestern China's Sichuan province to "discuss work matters", but then told her he wanted to be her boyfriend, the Beijing News said, citing a local newspaper.
"Miss Chen screamed out and fought back. Colleagues next door heard her and dialed (the police)," the newspaper said. Liu was found guilty of "using force to act indecently towards a woman", it added. China enacted its sexual harassment law in 2005. |
