Description

Professor Tanweer Ahmed, a senior clinical director at the NHS, was unfairly dismissed after a colleague accused him of bullying. The tribunal found significant flaws in the investigation, leading to a compensation payout of over four hundred and forty-nine thousand pounds. Ahmed, a Muslim of Pakistani background, faced malicious and laughable bullying allegations based on hearsay. The HR directors decision to push for a hearing, despite an initial recommendation against disciplinary action, was deemed flawed, with race potentially playing a role in his dismissal.
