A Westchester woman groped by a Muslim Uber driver during a late-night ride home is a “shadow of her former self,” she says in a lawsuit against the ride-sharing company.
NY POST The victim, identified in court papers as “Jane Doe,” says the alleged 2018 attack in the back of Muslim driver Iqbal Hussain’s Toyota Camry left her with a fractured shoulder, post-traumatic stress disorder and years of anxiety and depression.
“I lost all sense of safety,” she told The Post, speaking publicly about the incident for the first time.
It all could have been prevented if Uber, which long knew thousands of women had been assaulted by its drivers (especially Muslim drivers), had taken steps to monitor or screen employees, the victim charges in her Manhattan Federal Court lawsuit. “Uber knew that women who hired Uber to obtain a safe ride home were actually at risk,” according to the claim.
The incident unfolded on June 8, 2018, when the victim, who spoke on the condition of anonymity, spent a night on the town with friends after a long day at work on Wall Street
She logged onto the Uber app, and using her VIP status, requested a ride back to her Rye Brook home from Chelsea just after 1 a.m., a trip which should have taken just 40 minutes.
The victim fell asleep on the way — and woke to a nightmare. “I felt somebody touching me, and I noticed that there’s nobody in the front seat of the car, and I looked around and I notice the car is pulled over on the side of the highway,” she recalled.
As she tried to get her bearings, she realized the driver was sitting next to her, putting his hand underneath her dress, she claims.
“You just kind of go into survival mode. I just tried to punch him as hard as I could in the temple,” the victim said, crying. “Then he grabbed my right wrist and twisted my right arm, and I screamed for him to stop, because I was in excruciating pain.”
The attack stopped, and Hussain resumed driving her home. With just a single vehicle having passed by them on the empty highway, the panicked victim felt she had no choice but to stay in the car. Hussain acted “as if nothing had happened,” the woman charges in the legal papers.
“All I could think was, ‘Am I going to make it home OK?’” she said, fearful of spooking her attacker into doing something else. The next day, the woman, who suffered a fractured shoulder in the assault, went to Westchester cops.
Hussain, who could not be reached for comment, was arrested and eventually charged with first-degree sexual assault — but later acquitted during a 2019 trial after questions were raised about where the assault occurred.
The assault changed her life, said the victim, who still suffers from post traumatic stress disorder and anxiety as a result. “I was really depressed. I couldn’t get out of bed. I don’t sleep through the night, still,” she said. “… I started to feel like I was losing myself.”
Nearly 6,000 women were assaulted during Uber rides in 2017 and 2018 alone, the company said in December. “Uber doesn’t take any responsibility for anything.”
One of the many incidents involving Muslim Uber drivers:
Her lawyer, Bill Brewer, said, “Uber knew that this car picked this woman up, they knew where the intended location was and they knew that this Uber driver stopped off route for 15 minutes. They knew it.
“They also know that thousands and thousands of women have been sexually assaulted before that night by their drivers, yet they’re advertising themselves as the safe alternative to a yellow cab or some other type of transit after dark,” he continued.
Uber, which said the city Taxi and Limousine Commission conducts background checks on drivers in the five boroughs, says it cut ties with Hussain as soon as the assault was reported.

MORE REASONS TO AVOID UBER & LYFT CAR SERVICES THAT EMPLOY MUSLIM DRIVERS:
MUSLIM ‘UBER’ DRIVER rape epidemic continues
Next time you book an UBER car, be sure to request a non-Muslim driver
Especially if you are a non-Muslim woman, never book a ride with Uber
WARNING! Beware of Ride-Share services (UBER & LYFT) that use Muslim drivers

Are you sure that Muslim driving the Uber car you just ordered isn’t a terrorist?
NEVER HIRE A MUSLIM Ride Share service driver, either

you ought to have better sense than to get in a vehicle with fucking muslim.
In Australia when I order an Uber, if the name is Muslim I cancel, it is just so easy!
That might be easy in Australia. Here in the UK, in some areas, there are no none muslim taxi drivers. I do try and avoid them like the plague as i certainly don’t want to give them any financial support, however every now and again i have no choice.
But Uber is a business owned by a Moslame.
I finally found a non-Moslame taxi driver — I make sure to tip him at least $5. As for Uber, it’s a Moslame owned business so I wouldn’t call them if I needed a ride to my own funeral.
A friend of mine was awarded £30k in damages to keep quiet from UBER after she fell asleep to wake up with the Muzz taxi drivery squeezing her breasts. Turned out other women had also made accusations and were also paid hush money.
These stories are not well publicized and they should be.
They can’t publish them, it was part of their £30k settlement 🙂
Part of the problem with these “Internet giants” is that they are run by sociopaths. They’re computer geeks who’ve been detached from reality their entire lives. Thus, they don’t care how many women get assaulted, raped and killed. It’s just the cost of doing business to them. Stop riding Uber, Lyft and all of the others. Get a car, ride a bicycle, whatever. If you “must’ ride one of these islamomachines, carry a gun and train in firearms combat.
If only we could carry firearms in Australia but we live in a country where personal protection is way below the rights of criminals!

One law — Sharia for highly favoured, privileged Muslim violent, dangerous predators. Another law for despised, hated non Muslims whose rights are annihilated.
SATAN’S SPAWN Filth should get the Death Sentence, but because he’s a Muslim, the demon dressed up in human clothing walks free.
RAPES, gang rapes and sex slavery of non Muslims is LEGAL in Islam. It’s part of Sharia.
It’s why Muslims should never be allowed to be taxi drivers, policemen, work in security or any job where they would come into close contact with non Muslim women and children.
Nations have an ethical, moral responsibility to protect their people from violent predators.
Completely horrifying.
“Liberals” deserve to burn in hell for foisting these cavemen on us. And then making it practically illegal to criticise them.
She would have been safer walking home… like seriously. And the driver was acquitted, holy hell.
My teen aged daughter refuses to use Uber or Lyft even though Ive never seen a Muslum one here. I can’t talk her into it (for emergency purposes).
I think a solution would be for women to only accept a woman driver.
If I want a Taxi, I call a Taxi, and not some random guy with a Car making a few extras bucks in his spare time.
I have never used Uber or any of the other companies that are putting REAL Cab Drivers out of business.
I was once a Cab Driver so maybe thats why I support real Cab Drivers.
Most Cabbies own their Cab, or lease it, they get a License from the State, and yet we now have some guy coming along, picking you up, and you dont even know if he really has a drivers license let alone a Cab License, but people, young women, get in the car without a second thought.
I never thought such Uber Companies were valid.
I agree with you totally, Andrew. I would always call a legitimate taxi for the reasons you describe. I totally fail to understand how Uber can take business from legitamate taxi drivers. I remember the campaigns and fines against pirating movies, music, etc., with the claims that in pirating you were denying the artist of their royalty money. What’s the difference in this situation? Taxi drivers have to study extensively to get a taxi license, and yet all you need to be an Uber driver is a drivers license. It doesn’t make sense, and is completely unfair.
lm, it isn’t just that regular tai drivers are more qualified, in NYC, at least, they have to pay hundreds of thousands of dollars to acquire a taxi medallion if they want to work for themselves. At one point the fee was way more than $500,000, but thanks to Uber/Lyft, their medallions are now worth much less, while they still have to pay off their loans. There have been a lot of suicides because of this.
I have never used Uber/Lyft and never will.
The problem here in Californication is that the taxi industry is dominated by Moslames, just like Uber is.
Same in NYC. But at least the taxi drivers are accountable (to the Taxi Commission). Uber drivers are independent contractors so they are not.
If you call an Uber you know who the driver is and you can cancel, with a taxi in Australia you take pot luck and wind up with a Muslim, I then start asking them if they know what Muhammad looked like, they say the Imam only tells that he had a big head, I then whip out my trusty Samsung S9+ and show them this that makes them cringe:-
They’ve had a serious problem for many years, but people keep using it.
Ladies: carry, lock and load: when it is time to pay…….use it!
Protect yourselves. It’s very simple. Don’t ride Uber.
It’s always wrong when women are taken advantage of and assaulted, whether it’s by an Uber driver or anyone else. However, we women must all try to pro-actively protect ourselves. No. 1. – NEVER EVER be drunk and fall asleep in an Uber. No. 2. After a night out, always make sure that you have a pair of flats in your purse. Tottering along, drunk, in a pair of high heels, gives the same green light to predators as seeing an injured deer. No. 3. Always be aware of your surroundings – don’t walk around blissfully unaware, engrossed by your phone.
