Hi,
Dishonesty (or honesty) is a subjective item, since we tolerate a lot of integrity issues day in and day out. Gone are the days when honesty used to be a toggle ~ a person is honest or not.
You have to consider your present situation of business continuance etc. Let me share a specific instance that I faced in my professional life with you:
I joined a company as boss of a old timer (who has close proximity to the CEO) at the behest of another board member. I proposed dismissal of a dishonest employee who was taking money from candidates and the board member agreed with me. After this incidence, strange things started happening in my back and I had to quit within 3 months! I later learnt that the old timer was indeed behind the dishonest person, and turned CEO against me in a war which I fought to lose!!
My advice, therefore, is this: If you are an employee of the organization, report this to the appropriate authorities (remember to state only facts), and leave the rest to them. On the other hand, if you are the owner, just sack the dishonest person after ensuring that you really have the facts (to ensure that he was not "set up").
Hope this helps.
