'He walked in front of me so close I could have smelt him. I moved away and pretended to be looking at the plants on the shelf when he brushed past me from behind and something of his touched my buttock.
'It could have been the poke of a finger or light press of a hand. I jolted away and raced to another aisle. He then followed me to various aisles in the store and kept smiling at me.
