Lawyers for broadcaster Bláthnaid Ní Chofaigh say she was sexually harassed and victimised while working for RTÉ.

The TV presenter is set to give evidence at a public hearing next month about what she says happened. However, the alleged perpetrators will remain anonymous by order of the Workplace Relations Commission.
