TAIPEI, Taiwan—Human resources and upper management wouldn’t deal with her accusation of sexual assault, a former employee of Alibaba said. So she went into the busy cafeteria at the Chinese e-commerce giant’s headquarters and screamed out her plight.
Now she’s facing online harassment, accusations of lying from the wives of the two men she accused, and a defamation lawsuit from an Alibaba vice president who was forced to resign. And, she revealed recently, the company fired her.
