Billions of dollars and can’t pay people a proper wage! Such greed and corruption.

[ChristineHogan-tr]

Imagine what this family does to people in other countries that do not value human rights.

[murphyandmurphybrand]

It’s narcissism. They could pay their staff a lawyers wage and it would be like loose change to them. Just disgusting behaviour, taking advantage of vulnerable people is the lowest form of humanity.

[ashleylala]

It’s not just them. This entire class of people are so ruthless that they’ve become a cancer on humanity. You don’t become a multi-billionaire by being nice and ethical, you get there by being ruthless and unbound by a moral compass. I can’t even fathom the level of greed that it takes to propel someone to this level of wealth. It’s truly a pathology. Too much is never enough for them, they want it ALL.

[salimyusufji]

You featured the lawyer for the Hindujas but no one to speak for their exploited staff. Why?

[kbtken]

4 years in prison for being cheap. I bet they will spare no expense bribing the guards

[tomsung]

The irony of their lawyer claiming they will fight this all the way to the European court of human rights 🤣🤣🤣

[StephenNaish]

The old saying. Show me a rich man, l will show you a thief, is quite true at times.

[vsubhuti]

Abusing human rights and then wanting to go to the human rights court to fight for the billionaires these lawyers are something else

[generaldzaster]

Imagine the level of evil and greed to behave like this, Makes the term Eat the rich resonate

[jreinel]

They spend a lot of money on lawyers but won't pay well the people keeping the mansion organized and cooked for them?

[zchris]

They can afford but refused to pay...greedy!!!

[Mlogan]

Some of the richest people are also some of the most stingy.

[snowwhite]

Aren't BILLIONAIRES Wonderful?
By the way, this is what all the Rich Middle East Countries do to their foreign workers.

[solastorm]

rich people exploiting poor people? schocker!

[mariaserralheiro]

What? Billionaires exploited people? that's ridiculous 😒🙄 that's never been done right? 😂

[goldenhands]

This is what all these monstrosities want for the rest of us!

[pyotrberia]

I am shocked that people this rich would be punished for their crimes. This could never happen in Britain or the US.

[glennhubbard]

Britain's richest family: Hinduja. Says it all.

[electromega]

Now the defence lawyer fees they have to pay is probably 1000x more than a descent wages for those workers
