Human rights application alleging racial profiling by a grocery store security guard dismissed for lacking a prima facie case.
The applicant, a Black woman, alleged that she was racially profiled and falsely accused of shoplifting by a plainclothes security guard at a grocery store.
After the applicant presented her evidence at the hearing, the respondents moved to dismiss the application for having no reasonable prospect of success.
The Tribunal found significant credibility issues in the applicant's evidence, including contradictions regarding who accompanied her and why she returned items to the shelves.
The Tribunal concluded that the applicant failed to establish a prima facie case of discrimination and dismissed the application.
