But the accused denied the allegations, explaining he was in the building to chat with her.
The woman, however, claimed she was discussing with the accused about a job he had promised.
The doorman became involved the case after the first accused revealed he got the key from the former.
The woman wasn't charged in the case, but the doorman was accused of breach of duty.
They were sentenced to two months each behind bars, following which, they would be deported.
