Sacked nurse Naziah Sauni Samat said she is ready to face legal action from her former employer Damai Service Hospital (Taman Melawati).

Naziah said she was sacked after refusing to wear the uniform which did not comply with the Muslim code of modesty (aurat), but the hospital says she had disciplinary issues.

“I am ready to be sued. I am not afraid because I know what I did and I know I am not in the wrong,” she said when contacted.

The 24-year-old added that she will also lodge a complaint against her former employer with the Labour Department today.
