Seidu Musah, a taxi driver, received several bouts of slaps from a female passenger who accused him of sexually harassing her by using the driving mirror to peep under her skirt.
Maame Serwah Boateng, 26, who boarded the taxi from Bolgatanga to Bawku, said as soon as the taxi set off, she realised that the driver was looking into the mirror and focusing consistently between her thighs.
She told the GNA in Bawku; that she complained to the driver and the other passengers but the driver would not heed to her concerns, so the next time she caught him spying at her, she mustered courage and landed a hard slap on Musah's face.
That, she said, resulted in a melee in the car. She said she intended to report the matter to the police but the other passengers pleaded with her to let it go.
Mr Rockson Atiah; a retired teacher who happened to be one of the passengers, called on female passengers to always dress decently when travelling to avoid such harassments.
He said if Maame Boateng had dressed to cover up her knees, the driver could not have taken advantage to look at her.
