However, the court rejected the claim and awarded costs against him.

Vanyi-Robin is now appealing against the judgment but Motive said it was confident the appeal would be dismissed.

"Most of Mr Vanyi-Robin's other claims against the company relate to his dismissal for gross misconduct," the company added.

"The company believes these claims have no foundation and will continue to contest them with the utmost vigour."
