Positive action - of a sort!

Pier case Tribunal decision details Sheikh Gulzar’s penalty of almost £75k

In May, HOT reported on the Employment Tribunal case of the Hastings Pier engineers who had been working on the Pier. Their case of constructive unfair dismissal was upheld and compensation of nearly £75,000 was awarded. The article was titled ‘Pier-owner shamed by Tribunal decisions’.

The conduct of Mr Gulzar and Pier management considered by the Tribunal was also reported in Private Eye (No 1578, published 29 July 2022, p22).

Hastings County Court - the Land Registry recently registered a Bankruptcy Charge for the Pier (Title Number ESX246860):

2022-09-15 BANKRUPTCY NOTICE entered under section86(2) of the Land Registration Act 2002 in respec of a pending action, as the title of the proprietor ofthe registered estate appears to be affected by a petition in bankruptcy against Sheikh Abid Gulzar presented in the County Court at Hastings (Court
Reference Number 14 of 2022) (Land Charges - Reference Number PA 15983/22).

And here we go again!

 At least this time all extraneous matter has been cleared away and the Pier has been left clean and fresh in the sunshine - albeit closed.  But thanks to thosre responsible for the last two years.  It is a shame greed has made it impossible for you to carry on.
