This book is a first-person, non-fiction, account of a complaint of sexual harassment filed by
eleven women against a UN official in Pakistan and the institutional harassment suffered by those
women for voicing their complaint when UN officials colluded with the perpetrator to crush their
case…and their spirit. This case sparked a national movement that culminated in the passage of
legislation by the Pakistani Parliament in 2010 making sexual harassment a crime. The Prime Minister
of Pakistan declared the 22nd of December, the date the original complaint of this case was launched,
as a National Day for Working Women.
