A former assistant of Vin Diesel is suing the actor for sexual battery, alleging in a suit filed Thursday in Los Angeles she was assaulted while working on the “Fast Five” film.
Asta Jonasson accused Diesel, his sister Samantha Vincent and their One Race Productions of discrimination and wrongful termination for firing her only after the alleged sexual assault took place, according to documents obtained by Fox News Digital.
In the suit, she claimed Diesel “forcibly grabbed Ms. Jonasson, groped her breasts, and kissed her” at a hotel suite in Atlanta. “Vin Diesel ignored Ms. Jonasson’s clear statements of non-consent to his sexual assaults,” the lawsuit alleged.
Diesel’s representatives did not immediately respond to Fox News Digital’s request for comment.
“We are proud to represent Ms. Jonasson and hold accountable Vin Diesel and those who allowed and covered up his sexual assault,” Claire-Lise Kutlay of Greenberg Gross told Fox News Digital.
