A customer will have to pay compensation for moral damages in the amount of R$ 25 thousand to a supermarket cashier for racial slur. In a discussion on the price of the goods, as a bike had different price on the system and on the shelf, the man used curses like "scaup, periguete and dumb" when referring to the employee.
The sentence is the 3rd Civil Court of the Regional Forum Santana in São Paulo, but still subject to appeal.
In his ruling, Judge Jorge Alberto Quadros de Carvalho Silva said he was proven the offense suffered by the employee of the supermarket. The heard witness confirmed the account of the victim, in addition to the police report made at a police station. "The fact was sufficiently serious to give rise to financial compensation, as aimed humiliate a person because of the color of their skin, the environment of their work in a public place. Hence, a significant civil reprimand for due compensation. "
