Sacked long-time Frontline Management bookkeeper Sophia Ronaas has filed a complaint with Norwegian data privacy authorities against her former employer for accessing a decade of her emails, illegally, according to her lawyers.

The alleged privacy violations emerged in an Oslo District Court proceeding in which Ronaas is claiming wrongful dismissal, seeking reinstatement and damages. Norwegian business daily Dagens Naeringsliv reported the lawsuit on 25 June.
