Asian-origin postman gets compensation for racist abuse - The Hindu
"A Pakistan-origin postman who suffered eight years of racist abuse and threats from colleagues at a Royal Mail sorting office here, has won more than Rs 1.42 crores in compensation. Fiftynine-year-old Mahmood Siddiqui was branded a 'spear-chucking rag head' and had threats made against him and his wife and children, an employment tribunal was told. Siddiqui was yesterday awarded 178,542 pounds (over Rs 1.42 crores) compensation for racial discrimination from the Royal Mail. It included 104,142 pounds for loss of earnings, plus 20,000 pounds in interest and 8,000 pounds legal costs."
