Feeling fiche he resign from the company and sent resignation by registered a/d mentioning that since you had not given the appoint ment letter and he cannot risk for the job. After resigning he requested his previous employer and after discussion got the same past job. Now after two weeks he received a legal notice on behalf of the consultant that since you left the job compensates me of Rs. 240000 as the dues which he should had received from the company. Legal notice also say that the company in which my friend worked for 12 days is planning to take legal action against him because he has hack the name of the customers and trade secrets of the company.

Legal or illgal cannot be adjudged without examination of the contents of the related papers/ communications about the appointment and subsequesnt resignation of your friend. So, any casual consultancy may not help your friend. Better consult some service law expert by hiring of his services to give you or your friend appropriate advice after examination of the related documents.
