Battle Continues Between Former Prada Manager And The Brand - 27/08/10

The tennis match between Prada and former employee Rina Bovrisse in Japan goes for another round this week. Prada Japan will be launching “a countersuit claiming defamation against a former employee who is suing the company for alleged sexual harassment and unfair dismissal.” We covered the allegations from Bovrisse earlier this year and Prada Japan are now demanding that the former store manager pay 33 million yen ($390,000 dollars) for their troubles. It's a David and Goliath situation really and we look forward to hearing how the law decides to judge this case.
