Tharani Kutty performing in a saree at a company event at Hospital Seri Manjung, Perak.
“Upon further investigation, the employee has clarified during the meeting that there were no elements of force, nor was the employee compelled to remove any clothing, undergarments and jewellery by the supervisors,” it said in a statement to FMT. It noted that Tharani had taken part in one of its events at Hospital Seri Manjung, Perak, where she performed a traditional dance routine in a saree. This was in front of the hospital director and the company’s senior management “who thoroughly enjoyed the performance”.
UEM Edgenta has since paid Tharani RM1,211 as ordered by the court, adding that the Perak Labour Department had received the cheque. However, the firm appealed the decision at the High Court on the same day. The company saidadded it had informed all employees on the change of working hours in a memo dated Feb 11 and 26, 2020.
Would this mean Charles Santiago politicised and spinned this story for political gains? Would the actual fact be far from the abuse and bullying that Charles Santiago spinned? Everything that Charles Santiago lied is merely for politics? How low more can a politician go?
