A woman alleged on Saturday that she was sexually assaulted at her home eight years ago by a current candidate for parliament on Likud’s electoral list.
The anonymous woman claimed in an interview with Channel 12 news that Hanoch Milvitzky — no. 26 on Likud’s roster, representing the Gush Dan region –forcibly and sexually grabbed her at the end of a work meeting. Milvitzky has denied her allegations.
At the time of the alleged assault, the woman said she was working as a content consultant for companies and businesspeople, and Milvitzky came to her home as a client. In an interview with Channel 12 news on Saturday, she described the situation as escalating from “zero to one hundred in a second” when she walked him to the door.
“He didn’t even flirt with me, didn’t say a thing. He just attacked me,” she recalled. “He grabbed my hands, my entire body.”
She said that she felt unable to scream for help: “It was like in my biggest nightmare, that I’m under attack and can’t shout.”
The woman said she told Milvitzky, “Stop, I’m not interested. It was as if it turned him on even more.”
The woman said the assault finally ceased after she threatened to bite his neck, and told him he would be forced to explain the resulting mark to his wife.
“He stopped and immediately walked out the door. He left and wrote a message to me that he was sorry and didn’t intend it,” she said.
