New Delhi: In a shocking incidence during football world cup in Russia, a female Columbian journalist got sexually assaulted live on air. The journalist was reporting World Cup in Russia, when a man abruptly jumped between the shot and manhandled her. He  touched her inappropriately and then kissed her while she was reporting for the event. Before she could figure out, the man rushed away quickly. As per the reports, the journalist was broadcasting live from Russian city of Saransk for DW's Spanish news channel on Friday, when the incident took place. The man came out of nowhere and grabbed her in a very disrespectful way and kissed her on the cheek. The entire incidence was recorded and uploaded on instagram where journalist Julieth Gonzalez Theran demanded respect for female reporters.

¡RESPETO! No merecemos este trato. Somos igualmente valiosas y profesionales. Comparto la alegría del fútbol, pero debemos identificar los límites del afecto y el acoso.
