Costly lie | Citibank employee sacked for claiming partner's lunch on business expenses

Citibank has won an employment tribunal against one of its former employees who claimed they were unfairly dismissed for expensing their partner’s lunch.

Szabolc Fekete, a senior associate for EMEA regulatory exam management, who had been working at the bank for eight years, was dismissed after managers started to question his expenses from a work trip to Amsterdam last July.
