Defamation

Querist : Anonymous (Querist) 11 December 2011 This query is : Resolved 
In one hospital report was received that an employee had asked illegal money from patient.On the basis of report he was suspended pending enquiry.On priliminary enquiry no credible evidence was found.The suspension was waived.Can the employee file complaint of defamation.Does the internal memos in employment amount to defamation?
Raj Kumar Makkad (Expert) 11 December 2011
No. This is part and parcle of the service conditions so employee cannot file defamation suit as desired in the given facts.
Sailesh Kumar Shah (Expert) 11 December 2011
Not a fit case for defamation.Since all proceedings under service conditions.
