NEW YORK, Feb 17, 2006 (UPI via COMTEX) -- A 23-year-old New York woman has sued Societe Generale, claiming the French bank fired her for blowing the whistle on rampant sexual harassment.

"They made me feel like the bad guy," Kristin Polidori, reports the New York Post. She said her dismissal came shortly after that of the person alleged to have been her main harasser.

An attorney for Societe Generale denied the charge.

Polidori said her boss was fired after she complained, but her panic attacks continued as she became the talk of the office, the report said.
