Manoukian, who began working for Lopez, 42, in 2005, is suing the singer and her manager Benny Medina after he gave up his own transportation company to become the head of her security and transportation, reported TMZ online.
He has claimed that he started driving for Lopez and Marc Anthony in 2005 and over time they convinced him to shut down his company and work exclusively as her personal head of security and transportation.
According to the lawsuit filed by him, things turned ugly when Lopez began filming "What to Expect When You're Expecting" in 2011, that is when Hakob claims he was forced to spend time with Medina.
He has claimed that Medina eventually persuaded Lopez to demote him, taking away his security responsibilities and relegating him to be Lopez's driver.
Hakob has said that he was forced to resign and now he is suing Lopez and Medina for unspecified damages. PTI CORR NDS BK
