The suspended employee denied that they stole the alcohol. “We didn’t even go to the mini-bar on the night they say it happened,†he said.
He added the accusation has ruined their reputation.
Ahmed Shaaneez, communication manager at the resort, said no employees have been suspended for the alleged offence, but measures had been taken against employees for not turning up for work.
