[Sky employee who told colleague
that two young girls wearing short skirts
would be raped 'if this was Pakistan' wins
unfair dismissal case
Raja Minhas, 44, made comments while
working at stand in Lancashire in 2019
Employees working at shopping centre
to drum up business for Sky products
He was dismissed by Sky for gross
misconduct and 'violating common decency'
Tribunal judge said Mr Minhas made
a 'foolish remark' but ruled dismissal unfair]



[Much was made by the respondent witnesses
about the possibility that Sky's brand
would be damaged. That was an improbable outcome.
'The discussion between the claimant
and Ms Klemetti was a private one.'

Speaking after the verdict Mr Minhas,
of Nelson, Lancashire,
said he would be seeking his old job back
at a remedy hearing held at a later date.
He added: 'At the moment I don't want
to say much until after that.
But I am pleased with what the
tribunal has done.
The main thing was to show that Sky
made it out to be exaggerated
which was disappointing.

'It was something that was not nice
and I am pleased it has been put right.']

Silly Fella telling a Female Worker next to him.

I think most of us know how certain cultures view women, this is what I don't like about some people, their culture.

Well they probably would be, as would anyone who walks around flashing their ankles...

Yes but do not tell that to a Female co worker.

Yeah, I'd feel really uncomfortable and find it very inappropriate if someone I worked with made that comment to me

[bitontheslide]

it has no context, which can change the whole meaning. If the person saying it originates from Pakistan, he could be meaning that he would rape them if he were still in Pakistan. I'm not convinced this was the correct decision, but without context it's impossible to say

[LeatherTrumpet]

Bearing in mind noone walks around like that in Pakistan for a kick off so he is making up a fictitious situation and how does he know what rapists are up to and who they target?

sounds like he was verbalising his own thoughts

disgusting comment and he deserved to get sacked
