CNN Loses Appeal In Legal Battle With Journalist Suing For Unfair Dismissal & Discrimination


Saima Mohsin is suing CNN for unfair dismissal and disability discrimination. Her case can now proceed to a full tribunal after CNN lost an appeal.

Her cameraman ran over her foot, causing tissue damage and chronic pain, meaning she uses a walking stick and is unable to work full-time. Mohsin said: “Having fired me for asking for my rights as a disabled journalist, injured on assignment for them, CNN is now dragging me through the courts at great expense and distress, instead of making amends. She is represented by barristers Paras Gorasia of Old Square, and Jennifer Robinson and Finnian Clarke of Doughty Street Chambers.
