LEHI — A convenience store clerk in Lehi who was accused of following a customer into the restroom and sexually abusing her has been charged.

Dhiraj Sah, 23, of Saratoga Springs, was charged Monday in 4th District Court with forcible sexual abuse, a second-degree felony; obstruction of justice, a third-degree felony; and unlawful detention and lewdness, class B misdemeanors.

On Oct. 3, about 1:30 a.m., a woman entered a 7-Eleven, 2261 W. Main, and asked the store clerk, Sah, if she could use the restroom.

"(He) walked her to the bathroom, then followed her in and locked the door," according to charging documents.

Sah then allegedly exposed himself and inappropriately touched the woman. The woman "started screaming 'No'" until Sah finally unlocked the door, the charges state.
