HSBC UK staff sacked over mock ISIS video
July 07, 2015

HSBC bank has sacked some of its employees over an "abhorrent" video in which they pretended to be Islamic State (ISIS) militants carrying out a beheading. 

The video was posted online and shows a man dressed in an orange jumpsuit, while five other men in black stand around him '" one holding a fake knife, 'The Sun' reported. The employees are reportedly from the UK-headquartered bank's legal division and the incident took place on a team-building exercise in Birmingham. The bank said it did not tolerate "inappropriate behaviour".
