  "account": "According to a lawsuit filed by a former employee of the Prime Minister's Office (PMO), Sara Netanyahu verbally abused and subjected him to extreme demands on a daily basis. The employee, Rami Ben-Hamo, claims he endured unacceptable working conditions, constant shouting, insults, derogatory nicknames, and humiliation from Sara. He alleges that she demanded NIS 450,000 in compensation for the treatment he received.\n\nBen-Hamo, who fulfilled every assignment given to him by Sara, worked up to 80 overtime hours each month, exceeding what his contract allowed. He noted that the treatment towards the end of his employment became particularly harsh, with Sara allegedly calling him a \"bad cleaner\" who couldn't clean properly. The lawsuit also states that Sara threw cleaning wipes on the ground when Ben-Hamo missed any dirt spots, an issue he faced due to vision problems.\n\nDespite being fully aware of the issues Ben-Hamo faced, the PMO allegedly did nothing to help him. The lawsuit also alleges that Sara directed additional insults towards Ben-Hamo, including \"You destroyed my family\" and \"The prime minister and I don't like you,\" as well as referring to him as a \"primitive Moroccan.\"",
  "summary": "The lawsuit alleges that the employee, Rami Ben Hamo, suffered \"unacceptable\" working conditions, as well as shouting, insults, and humiliation at the hands of Sara \"on a daily basis.\"",
