Like me Lady Colleagues Harassing Everydays in Bangladesh

Nobody in this world will be alive forever. But two bengali people shows their behavior like they are life longer. They never shows their loyalty and respectness to colleagues and friends. They have ego for nothing, which I can't describe in the word. They changed their color like the chameleon. This is the daily routine for myself from last 3 months. I am mentally and physically ill and sick from their dictatorship. In the same time, perpetrators are available everywhere. My colleagues has more than bitter experiences she is harassing everyday from her landlord. Till date CSF is not taking action against him. Landlord showed the gratitude to her by saying like the daughter and knocking the door, calling in late night, messaging her with sexual exploited words. This is the peak stage of humiliation in Bangladesh.  How can we tolerate here? We need a peace, safe, secure and friendly working environment. Please god give me the power to struggle here.
