Leading Hollywood actor Morgan Freeman has been accused of sexual misconduct by as many as eight women.
In an investigative report appeared on the CNN, the women, who worked with Morgan Freeman under various capacities, claimed that they were subjected to indecent behaviour, including inappropriate touchings and words, by the actor.
One of the women, who was interviewed by the CNN, claimed that Morgan Freeman tried to lift her skirt and asked her if she was wearing an underwear.
A woman, who was part of the production staff of the movie 'Now You See Me' told the CNN that Morgan Freeman used to comment on women.
CNN had spoke to 16 women who worked with the actor in various films, eight of who said they faced some form of sexual misconduct from the Oscar winning actor at some time or other. Three among them claimed that Morgan Freeman made public comments about their clothing or bodies. They said they did not dare to reveal about the incidents for the fear of losing their jobs.
Those people who were subjected to the actor's alleged inappropriate behaviour also include entertainment reporters who happened to meet Morgan Freeman during movie promotions or interviews. One of them claimed that the actor took her and refused to let go. This happened when they were in a room full of people.
