(BBC) A National Crime Agency (NCA) officer who made offensive remarks about Muslims was unfairly sacked, an employment tribunal has found.
Abbey Brooke made the comments at a training session led by Abrar Javid, a Muslim community leader in Rotherham.
The tribunal said the intelligence officer’s conduct had contributed to her dismissal.
But it found the dismissal was unfair due to procedural failures during the NCA disciplinary process.
Ms Brooke was awarded over £6,500 in compensation.
Details of the employment tribunal heard in Leeds in December 2021 are now reportable for the first time after BBC News successfully argued that a number of reporting restrictions imposed by the court should be lifted.
