Dear Sir,
I was working with a MNC Automotive Company in chennai for the past 2.6 years as Asst Manager.
I have resigned from duty on 28th dec 2009 and was relieved from service by 31st dec 2009. I have obtained no due certificate, proper relieving letter & service certificate from the company. I was told that my terminal benefits would reach me in a week's time
I waited patiently for 12 days and one of colleagues had called me up today and informed about my ex-boss's decision of not dispatching my december salary cheque for not leaving any datas in my computers.
But I've obtained a clearance certificate from this company's Information tech dept and they recommended me for relieving after checking my PC for any unauthorised data theft/ copying/ deletion etc which is a standard procedure for employees before releiving.
Since my computer was handled my many people using the admin password after resigning, they could have possibly deleted some sensitive data / copied it through LAN/ locked it.
I also suspect that immediate successor to my position, to evade a demanding responsibility and to buy some time would committed such an act.
Till date I always maintained good relationship with my ex-boss and colleagues and had suggested him to use data recovery softwares/ inform experts from IT Dept. But he started to yell at me and didn't believe my explanation over phone.
How Should I approach this?? Since this company has great influence over the current political regime & top bureaucrats
What are the legal ways ??
