Two more women are claiming that state Sen. James Marzilli behaved inappropriately toward them.
In a lawsuit filed Tuesday in Middlesex Superior Court, one woman alleges he made lewd comments and rubbed against her at a political rally for Gov. Deval Patrick in 2006.
Another woman alleges that while spending the night in Marzilli's guest room last September, she awoke with Marzilli on top of her. The woman worked for a nonprofit organization headed by Marzilli's wife, who was away at the time.
The suit asks the court to bar Marzilli from harassing his alleged victims and any other women.
Marzilli's lawyer, Terrence Kennedy, had no comment.
Marzilli faces criminal charges for allegedly harassing four women in Lowell last month.
