The Arab woman filed a lawsuit against her former employer for firing her without giving a good reason behind her termination, which is punishable by law.
She also added that even after she worked for the bank for 8 years, she wasn’t given a chance to explain if ever she had done something that was against the company.
The woman requested the court for the bank to pay the salaries that have been unpaid for the past three months, compensation for unfair dismissal, gratuity, grant her a certificate of experience, and to pay all legal duties.
