It is illegal that the company has taken the original certificates. Your wife can demand them back.
as regards to service bond, this could be enforced only if the company provides any specialized training.

Write to the company for returning the original mark-sheet. If they do not do so, approach police.
Write to give the copy of leave rules, if leaves are not provided as per law, write to labor department.
Better your wife should search another job.
