Four members of Britain’s richest family have been handed prison sentences for exploiting their servants after they were accused of spending more on their pet dog than one of their employees.
A Swiss criminal court found Prakash Hinduja, 78, and his wife, son and daughter-in-law guilty of exploiting workers and providing unauthorised employment, but rejected more serious charges of human trafficking.
The defendants were sentenced to between four and four-and-a-half years in prison each. Lawyers said they would appeal.
