THEboss of a Kentish Town minicab firm has disappeared after being ordered to paymore than £10,000 to a 24-year-old employee he sexually harassed.
Atribunal ruled in June that Akmal Shaikh, the owner of Teksi in Fortess Road,had sexually harassed Sarrah El-Atar almost from the moment he hired her towork as a sales and marketing manager.
Hehad instructed a recruitment agency to send him only the CVs of “well groomed”women under 25,
andtook Ms El-Atar out to dinner before she started work “to get to know herbetter”, he said. Once she started, he would stare at her and look her up anddown, commenting on her “sexy legs and good body” and saying that she was youngand pretty and that he would have “had” her if he was 20 years younger.
Hetold her she had only been employed for her looks and asked often about hersexual relationship with her boyfriend, said findings published by theTribunal. Failing to pay her more than half her wages, he complained that hehad not had sex in seven months and was divorcing his wife. When hecomplimented her on her clothes and asked if she was wearing them to pleaseher, she asked him to stop.
Inturn he accused her of dressing inappropriately – a charge dismissed by thetribunal. Within a week of writing a letter of complaint she was sackedunlawfully.
MrShaikh and his son, Abdul-Jabbar, both failed to attend the tribunal hearings andsold the business to another minicab firm soon after it was announced that theywould have to pay a total of £10255.97 in unpaid wages and damages. The 42-dayperiod in which Mr Shaikh could have lodged an appeal with the tribunal passedlast week.
Aspokesman for Concorde, the firm which took on Teksi’s business, said Mr Shaikhhad since “disappeared”, adding: “His decision to sell probably had somethingto do with this case---- – we don’t have anything to do with him.”
MsEl-Atar said: “I’m relieved to have won the case, which was prolonged by thisman’s delay tactics.
“Itis good to have cleared these slurs from my name but I still have not had apenny of what I am owed and the letters my lawyer has sent demanding the moneyhave not been answered.”
（雇佣劳工）法庭在（2004年）六月份作出了如下裁决：阿克毛拥有位于（伦敦市）佛特思路的Teksi（出租车）公司。阿克毛招聘莎拉做该公司的行销经理，几乎就从招聘时起，阿克毛开始对莎拉性骚扰。阿克毛指示招聘机构只给他送 "打扮漂亮的"，25岁以下女人的简历。而且在莎拉工作之前，阿克毛请莎拉小姐吃晚餐。阿克毛称，这是“为了多了解她 "。莎拉开始工作后，阿克毛就盯着她看，上下打量莎拉。说她" 腿有性感，身材好看 "；而且说她年轻又漂亮，还说要是他年轻 20岁的话，他就一定会“占有”她。
判决书中说，阿克毛告诉过莎拉，她被雇用是因为她的容貌。而且阿克毛时常问起她同男朋友的性关系。当被质问为何只支付她一半薪水时, 阿克毛抱怨说，他在七个月内没有性关系，而且正在同他的妻子打离婚。阿克毛还称赞莎拉穿的衣服，并且问她是不是让他高兴她才这样穿，在这个时候，莎拉要求阿克毛他停止（这样对待她）。.
阿克毛反倒控告莎拉穿着不检点-------法庭驳回了这一指控。在莎拉写出控告信后，不到一个星期，莎拉被非法解雇。
阿克毛先生和他的儿子，阿布杜，都没有（按规定）出席法庭听证会。而且，在（法庭宣布）他们必须偿付总数达￡ 10255.97的薪水和伤害赔偿金.之后，阿克毛和他的儿子很快就把生意卖给了另一家小型出租车公司。在上个星期，42 天内上诉期限已到。阿克毛先生没有提出上诉。
买下（阿克毛）生意的“协合”商行的一位发言人说，阿克毛先生自从（卖了生意后），便下落不明。发言人进一步说： "他卖出生意的决定可能与此案有关--------（但是）我们同他（的事）无关。”
莎拉小姐说：“阿克毛使用拖延手段，使这个案子拖得过久。案子赢了，令我轻松。” “虽然我被污蔑的名声得到清洗，但是亏欠我的，我还一个便士没得到。而且我的律师发出的索赔信，到现在还没有得到答复。”
