The airline involved, from what I had gathered, from the original posting of this subject on pprune, is that Myt was already looking for a reason to sack this guy, and he gave them all the justification, doing something like that in the US is actually a violation of federal law...and you could lose your licence, pay fines or go to jail---definitely lose your carreer---
At least he has a chance to get another job, and perhaps this is a learning experience for him to do better at a different company or find a company that better suits his management style.
Many folks want to go into the airlines and would gladly follow the rules of their company or nation in order to assure a long tenure---please don't think I'm on a mudslinging expedition....However, he seems to have little choice available but to pick up the pieces and procede on.
and on that I wish him good luck
