Lets not get into a legal minefield. Suffice to say those documents tendered list allegations only that are yet to be proven or disproven.
Evidence given directly by the accused is not complete until they have been examined and cross-examined.
THIS IS AN EXAMPLE ONLY…...
Evidence given when questioned:
Q😀id you strike that man with a crowbar?
A:Yes.
No further evidence until he is asked later in the hearing by his defence....
Q: Why did you strike that man with a crowbar?
A: Because he had a gun and was about to pull the trigger to kill an innocent person at a bus stop. It was the only way I could think of to prevent the shooting.
Moral: It's probably safer just to wait until the end.
If he either pleads or is found guilty, then action will take place.
If he is found not guilty, then he is an innocent man and should be treated as such.
Taking action mid way through any matter is dangerous, especially for an employer, and opens them up to all manner of civil action and unfair dismissal proceedings.
In this case, just let the matter take it course to a fair and reasonable end, which will be soon enough.
PS: A lesson that I'm sure we all know, bust just a reminder. Don't believe everything you read, see or hear in the media. As we know, they make the .....(ahem)....occasional mistake.
