BRALIRWA Plc vs. NZARAMBA
BRALIRWA Plc did not have valid economic grounds for terminating Nzaramba Pierre Celestin, failed to notify the labour inspector and provide written notice as required by law, and thus the dismissal was unlawful. Damages must be calculated on the net salary actually received (785,370 Frw), not the higher amount claimed. Nzaramba's cross-appeal for additional sums and recalculation of severance on a higher salary was rejected due to lack of evidence and failure to timely claim the increased salary.
