A for­mer em­ploy­ee of the Air­ports Au­thor­i­ty is su­ing the or­ga­ni­za­tion, al­leg­ing as­sault and neg­li­gence af­ter a work­place in­ci­dent with a col­league, which took place in March 2023.

Julio Robin­son claims he suf­fered phys­i­cal and psy­chi­atric in­juries.

Robin­son, rep­re­sent­ed by at­tor­neys Nicholas Per­sad and Is­abell Rahim, says the AATT failed to pro­vide a safe work en­vi­ron­ment.

The Au­thor­i­ty has un­til Jan­u­ary 3, 2025, to re­spond.

Just last Tues­day, a se­cu­ri­ty of­fi­cer as­signed to the Air­ports Au­thor­i­ty was ac­cused of as­sault­ing a se­nior Im­mi­gra­tion Of­fi­cer when he re­port­ed for his shift at the Pi­ar­co In­ter­na­tion­al Air­port.

The Air­ports Au­thor­i­ty says that in­ci­dent is still un­der in­ves­ti­ga­tion.
