Sara Netanyahu, the wife of Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, is at the center of sensational (http://abcnews.go.com/International/israel-harvested-organs-permission-families-dead/story?id=9390407) tabloid newspaper allegations by her former cleaning lady.
Lillian Peretz filed a lawsuit in Tel Aviv last week claiming almost $70,000 in damages for underpayment and abusive behavior. The Netanyahus employed her for six years to clean their luxury villa in the exclusive Israeli resort (http://abcnews.go.com/Travel/story?id=8326521&page=1) of Ceasearea.
The leading Israeli daily Yedioth Aharanot splashed the story on its front page Friday, quoting from the lawsuit. It said that Sara Netanyahu insisted on being addressed as "Mrs. Sara Netanyahu" after her husband became prime minister (http://abcnews.go.com/International/story?id=6853920&page=1) last year.
She reportedly demanded that Peretz take several showers a day and bring four changes of clothing with her "to maintain maximum sterility and not pollute the house."
The paper also claimed Sara Netanyahu forced Peretz to work on the Jewish Sabbath (http://abcnews.go.com/International/wireStory?id=8493503) and once called her at 2 a.m. in the morning to complain about ill-fitting pillow cases.
Meanwhile, other former staff have surfaced to tell their stories of working with the Netanyahu family, as well as similarly damning reports of Sara's purported bad temper.
