The former employees some of whom turned up to court with children say life has been tough since they were unfairly dismissed from their source of livelihood following DFCU’s take-over of Crane Bank, with the bank’s management then promising staff would not lose their jobs.

Some turned up with their children at court.

Legal Brains Trust’s Isaac Semakadde, a lawyer with interest in human rights and representing marginalised groups is representing the aggrieved former staff.
