Termination from service

(Querist) 08 June 2012 This query is : Resolved 

Dear All,

I was working with HDFC bank since last 3 years I am permanent employee of the Bank. Issue begin like this I had purchase a second phone worth 45000 from a person I made part payment of Rs.15000 and rest after some days which he agreed but the phone had some problem in it which I didn't knew so I ask that person to take the phone back and return my money but he did not did we had some words of exchange and then I refuse to make the balance payment then he went to police and filed a case against me u/s 420 that I am not paying his money.

Since I was working in the Bank police officer arrested from bank and took me to the police station.

They kept me in remand for 7 days and when I was released on bail I went to bank to resume my service bank didn't allow me to resume my duty and ask me to resign instead, but I said no to it. After that Bank issued me a show cause notice to me asking me to provide why bank should not take action against me on which I replied to bank. After 1 and 1/2 month of no reply from the bank toward my letter they issued me Termination letter.

Please help me whether Bank can terminate me on such grounds.

I want to fight a case against the bank for such unjustice to me.

Dear Sameer
According to your information this is not a case u/s 420 IPC it can be a case u/s 406 IPC, what is the FIR version or main allegation against you?

Any criminal case for offence in the private life of an employee also affects his service at least in reputed organisations. You may better check employees conduct & discipline rules of the HDFC Bank for your satisfaction.
