Professor Brendon Bain
The Court has ruled in favour of Professor Brendon Bain in his wrongful dismissal case against the University of the West Indies (UWI) Mona.
The ruling was handed down this afternoon.
The court ordered that the UWI pay restitution of $4.27 million plus costs due in lieu of three months notice.
The court found that Professor Bain's termination was a breach of his right of freedom of expression.
Professor Bain sued the UWI in 2014 for defamation of character, and breach of his constitutional rights following his dismissal as Director of the Regional Coordinating Unit of the Caribbean HIV/Training Network.
The dismissal was in relation to protests by gay rights groups over his testimony in a constitutional case in Belize.
