Facts of the Case

Background

The Appellant, a Senior Manager - Branch Operations, was dismissed for certifying inaccurate information on the Bank's Vault Register without proper verification, failing to initiate criminal proceedings against a subordinate who stole US$75,000, and failing to implement and monitor Central Cash Depot controls. The Appellant appealed the dismissal, arguing that the relevant policies did not apply to him and that he had complied with procedures.
