The guy got fired? Really? That seems a bit harsh. We think they should have given him a special bonus for creativity on the job.
The Daily Mail UK has the details of the marital mayhem:
An immigration officer tried to rid himself of his wife by adding her name to a list of terrorist suspects.
He used his access to security databases to include his wife on a watch list of people banned from boarding flights into Britain because their presence in the country is ‘not conducive to the public good’.
As a result the woman was unable for three years to return from Pakistan after travelling to the county to visit family.
The tampering went undetected until the immigration officer was selected for promotion and his wife name was found on the suspects’ list during a vetting inquiry.
The Home Office confirmed today that the officer has been sacked for gross misconduct.
There’s a lesson to be learned from this. And the lesson is, quick, someone find out when Barbra Streisand’s next international tour is scheduled.
