Key findings
Tribunal's reasoningThis was a short oral judgment by Employment Judge Kight, heard in Reading by video on 8 September 2025. The claimant was Mr T Ragab and the respondent was LHR Airports Ltd. The written record states that reasons were given orally and that no written reasons would be provided unless requested.
On the wrongful dismissal claim, the tribunal found that it had not been presented within the applicable time limit. However, it accepted that it was not reasonably practicable to present the claim in time and that it was brought within a further reasonable period. The result was that the wrongful dismissal claim was permitted to proceed.
On the victimisation claim, the tribunal likewise found that it had not been presented within the applicable time limit. The tribunal held that it was just and equitable to extend the time limit, so the victimisation claim was also allowed to proceed. This judgment does not decide the merits of either claim and records no monetary award.

How we got this data
Case essentials (reference, date, judge, venue, country, claim categories) are extracted from the structured metadata gov.uk publishes alongside each decision. Parties and monetary figures are extracted from the judgment PDF text. Key findings and per-claim outcomes require a second extraction pass that is not yet complete for this case — until then, the primary source linked above is the authoritative record.
