Two Wellington women have spoken out about their long battle with a gym they worked at after complaining a trainer had sexually assaulted them. They say the assault happened in December and when they went to The Lion Pit's management they ended up being banned from the premises. The gym owner issued a media statement apologising for the ban but the women insist he has never said sorry to them directly. Charlotte Cook has the story.
