Muslim chef refused to cook bacon....

If he didn't want to cook bacon, he should have taken a different job....
A Muslim working as a catering manager for the police 'flatly refused' to cook sausages and bacon for officers' breakfasts, a tribunal has heard.

Hasanali Khoja, 60, would not have any direct or indirect contact with pork products, even if using gloves and tongs, claiming that 'splashback' from frying would breach the requirements of his faith.

After meetings to discuss the issue, Mr Khoja complained that a Metropolitan Police human resources manager pulled faces at him and made 'racist gestures'.

He then took six months' leave suffering from stress.

Mr Khoja is claiming racial and religious discrimination by the Metropolitan Police.

He wasn't fired immediately for not doing his job? What the hell is wrong with employers? How stupid must one be to work in management?

How did he get hired as a caterer? What, did he not mention this at the interview?

Skinny Dipper doesn't like cooking with bacon either. He's worried about "splashback" too.
