One of my relatives was working in a Nationalised Bank as Manager. On February 2012 charge of misappropriation of funds was leveled against him and was suspended. Inquiry was held and he being charge of the department took responsibility for this and promised to make up the loss caused. There after the Bank filed a criminal case against him. His family paid off the Bank after selling of their ancestral property.
There after the bank send a letter to the police that they have receive the money. Then the police have submitted the case closing report.
Thereafter, the bank have sent a termination letter on October 2012.
Recently he has received two letters to pay up the dues (which includes a residential flat that he purchased after taking loan from his organization).
Another letter he has received is for applying for gratuity and PF withdrawal.
He is unemployed since.
What legal recourse does he have?
Can he by any remote change get his job back, may be in a lower post as punishment on humanitarian grounds?
Can he ask the bank to let him sell the flat and pay off their dues? His gratuity and PF is being withheld it seems.
Thanks in advance for good advice
