HSBC, the largest bank in Britain, dismissed six of it’s workers after a video appeared online showing them taking part in a mock Islamic state style killing.
In the clip, obtained by The Sun newspaper and filmed during a team-building exercise at a go karting centre, the men are seen staging a beheading with five of them laughing while a colleague in an orange jumpsuit knelt at their feet.
A fake knife and a coat hanger were also seen in the footage as the men shouted “Allahu Akbar” (God is greater/God is the greatest).
A spokesperson for HSBC said: “We do not tolerate inappropriate behaviour.
“As soon as The Sun brought this video to our attention we took the decision to sack the individuals involved.
“This is an abhorrent video and HSBC would like to apologise for any offence caused.”
