A former store manager with Carrefour supermarket has sued owners of the retailer accusing them of wrongful dismissal and accessing his data against the law. The local Carrefour franchise is owned by Majid Al Futtaim Hypermarkets Limited whose parent firm is Dubai-based.
Mr Peter Nyingi Waweru was summarily dismissed in March this year over accusations of receiving Sh50,000 from one of the suppliers. The retail chain allegedly investigated claims of unfair awarding of tenders to suppliers by staff in an attempt to defraud owners.
