They can file case for bond amount subject to termination notice being properly served to them. As regards PF they can withheld but cannot stop payment.

The PF can not be withheld or attached.

The funds in PF a/c are not in control of employer and is with EPFO.

The declinature to attest the PF forms by employer is offence.

Submit PF forms under proper acknowledgment.

If you have been working for 2 years and bond is for 2 years then why 1 month is still left?

The Bond was drafted in lieu of what extra ordinary favor by employer e.g; training at the cost of employer from some Instt.?

PF is immune from attachment even by court
