The Ministry of Defence has been ordered to pay nearly £190,000 to a lesbian soldier who was sexually harassed by a male sergeant.

Lance Bombardier Kerry Fletcher, 32, will receive a total of £186,895.52 after she won her claims against the MoD for sex discrimination, victimisation and sexual harassment at an employment tribunal in Leeds.

Miss Fletcher's career collapsed as a result of the unnamed sergeant's actions while she worked at an Army stables in North Yorkshire.
