A Swiss court has handed jail sentences to four members of Britain’s richest family for exploiting Indian staff at their Geneva mansion.

The Hindujas, who were not present in court, were acquitted of human trafficking but convicted of other charges on Friday in a stunning verdict for the family, whose fortune is estimated at £37bn.

Prakash Hinduja and his wife, Kamal, were each sentenced to four years and six months in prison, and their son Ajay and his wife, Namrata, received four-year terms.

Get a chef who graduated from a renowned culinary school.

That's what a friend of mine does - he is rarely home because the rich family that employs him want him on hand 24/7 and they pay accordingly. They get top notch food whenever they want it and are pretty safe from getting their food spat in. The Hindujas have probably ingested a lot of phlegm over the years. Should be good practice if they ever actually end up in prison.

Exactly. All those 'extra milky' cappucinos.

Scum people deserve scum service.*

Note that I said service, not staff. If someone is willing to clean your shitty toilet, you need to pay them decently.

Dude if they have been served Indian food there could be literally anything hidden in there...

I adore Indian culture and their foods are so delicious but man sometimes it looks like poo
