German sacked for marrying Chinese woman

 阅读难度:


An engineer in northern Germany who was sacked because he married a Chinese woman was unjustifiably dismissed, a court has ruled, BBC reported.

The man was declared a security risk by his employer after his marriage.

The company acted as a supplier for the German armed forces and feared possible industrial espionage.

But the court said the engineer's employer had violated his right to marry whomever he chose.

Finally, the man was awarded compensation equivalent to seven months' salary.

       据悉,作为德国军方的供应商,公司担心其可能进行行业间谍活动。

       但法院表示,雇主侵犯了他自由选择配偶的权利。
