AN Asian detective who won a race discrimination case against the Metropolitan Police is taking his employers back to a tribunal.

Gurpal Virdi, a Sikh detective sergeant, said he still faced racism despite the inquiry into his previous case and he was taking a new case to an employment tribunal.

Mr Virdi won compensation and an apology from the Met in 2002 over racist mail claims.
