KLM Launches Probe into Employee’s Racist Comments Against Moroccan Passengers

As a Royal Air Maroc (RAM) plane bound for the kingdom was about to take off from an airport in the Netherlands, Moroccans were subjected to racist insults from a KLM airline employee. In a video posted on social media, this man wearing a KLM security jacket is seen dancing on the airport tarmac. "Yes, yes, there goes another box full of Moroccans to Morocco," the KLM employee mocks. "A one-way ticket for everyone..." Laughter and applause were heard on the same tarmac.

After becoming aware of this video, KLM has ordered an investigation, reports the ANP agency. "KLM has taken note of this video with horror and rejects the images and statements it contains," said a spokesman for the Dutch company. "KLM does not discriminate on the basis of age, gender, nationality, race, religion or lifestyle."
