we've both been questioned and given statments to my boss's boss and been suspended oh also while being questioned he lied about the other employee being spotted on other cctv talking to me on my break which never happened and he wont let me see the footage as he says it belongs to the outlet i work within and due to data protection cant view it till monday??????????

iv got to go back in tomorrow not sure what for but i want advise never been thru anything like this dont know my rights or what will/can happen

were you searched? at places where ive worked with money and goods they have the right to search you and your property i.e car if thats how you got to work and if its parked on their premesis to see if you have taken anything.

if you were not searched then i guess you are just going to have to rely on ccvt which will hopefully show you are not guilty.

good luck

I would get the police involved as their investigation will prove your innocence - hopefully.

If you have done nothing wrong there is no need to worry at all.
slightly worrying about your boss lying - if that was what you were implying.

I would start writing everything down .
And if it were me I would definitely be getting legal advice.

Don't worry, if you've done nothing wrong, your fine! seek legal advice asap though.

Fair enough - I was only meaning that the clearer the info the more chance you have of better advice.

Why do you say this? things look bad on my half
