Security man who struck youth gets €20k

The Employment Appeals Tribunal made the award after finding that Olatunji Lyinolakan had been unfairly dismissed by Tesco Ireland Ltd after the night-time incident at its store in Celbridge, Co Kildare.
In his evidence to the tribunal, Mr Lyinolakan admitted to striking the youth in the middle of the body with the shopping basket after taking up work at 10pm on September 2, 2010.
