A former Disney Cruise Line employee accused of molesting a young passenger went to court last week, but had the court proceedings pushed back because of a language barrier. Ahmed Sofyan, who worked on the Disney Dream as a cabin steward, was arrested back in 2014 after being accused of molesting a 13-year-old girl in an empty cabin. The judge was concerned that Sofyan, who is from Indonesia, would not fully understand the proceedings, so he has pushed the court date back one month while he and the defense attorney work to locate an Indonesian interpreter. شراء يانصيب اون لاين
