Eastmatt Supermarket Takes Action against Supervisor Filmed Assaulting Female Cashier
Eastmatt Supermarket has confirmed that the man who was caught on CCTV assaulting a female cashier at their Kajiado store is their employee.
In a statement on Saturday, the retailer said the cashier was physically abused by another employee and was receiving treatment.
Further to this, Eastmatt indicated that the man, who was a supervisor, had been suspended and a report filed at the Kajiado Police Station. The retailer did not reveal whether he had been arrested.
“We as EastMatt condemn and do not stand for such heinous acts of disrespect against our staff more so women. The individual in question acted solely and has since been suspended with a report officially being filed at Kajiado County Police,” read the statement.
In the video, the violent man is seen slapping the female cashier on the left cheek, pulling her by the hair before hitting the back of her head.
He goes ahead to pull her from the counter and continues raining blows on her until after a man in a white shirt comes to her rescue. It took nearly a minute for the cashier to get help.
At the beginning of the video, the man appears to be in a heated argument with the cashier before he begins assaulting her.
