This news clip that I found in a local newspaper states that a BBC news reader lost her job because she gave specific instructions to her cab company that she doesn’t want a driver that wears a Turban.

The transcripts of the Phone conversation she had with her cab company was published in a local news paper in London and she was fired within 24 Hrs.

Now I am a bit confused with this action against her. Did she commit racial discrimination ? Or was she just exercising her right to choice ?

These days real estate agents and rent a car dealers are very vigilant when dealing with Muslim customers. Many consider it risky to rent out a house or buy /sell cars to Muslim Bachelors. But does that qualify as discrimination ?Similar Posts:
