to work as soon as possible but that this could not be done until my appeal had been dealt with. Susana Martin then claimed that I was not on extended suspension and I should have shown up for work on Friday at 10h00, four days earlier. I was tremendously shocked when she said that she had the confidential letter from HR to me in front of her. It felt like there had been an earthquake and the house had collapsed on me when she said that. This was the biggest evidence till now that Danielle Wood and Emma Horwood from HR were directly involved in passing confidential emails to my management whom I accused of bullying and covering up. This proved that there was a conspiracy to bully me out of the company and these phone calls formed part of that. I told Susana Martin twice that I found her calls a continuation of bullying and asked her repeatedly to stop bullying me. I told her that because I was appealing the investigation outcome, she was still under investigation and therefore should not call me. She ended the call by saying twice: “This is leading nowhere, I'm going to end the call” and she hung up. I found that very intimidating and more proof that they were creating a situation to be able to sack me.

269. On 30th April 2018 at 19h16 in the evening Danielle Wood sent me an email (CC to Emma Horwood, Susana Martin, Samira Mouhayar, Roni Maman) claiming I should have been back at work on 27th April 2018, four days before this email, and she asked why I did not show up. She also attached the confidential email to me from that date. What immediately alarmed me was that a confidential document regarding bullying by Susana Martin and others like Samira Mouhayar covering up of it was sent to exactly those people, who were copied in on the email.

270. The email from Danielle Wood (CC Emma Horwood, Susana Martin, Samira Mouhayar, Roni Maman):
Bart, following my correspondence on Friday we were expecting you in the office for your shifts as per my email. I understand from your team leader that you have not come into work.
Just be absolutely clear you asked if you could remain on suspension on full pay and I said The Gibraltar Harassment and Bullying Process (as detailed on the intranet) states that the complainant may be suspended on full pay while the investigation is being conducted. The investigation has taken place and an outcome has been delivered.
