A Catholic firearms officer has won almost £44,000 in a religious harassment case after “f*** the Pope” was written on his work coffee mug.
Paul McCue, a police sergeant, discovered the message on the underside of his Celtic Football Club mug and was so upset that he had to go home from work.
The officer had previously been “harassed” by colleagues writing comments about the Ulster Defence Association, a loyalist paramilitary group, an employment tribunal in Glasgow was told.
