The employer or other empowered officer who recommended the withdrawal and the employees of pf office are responsible. File FIR.

The employer (or to be more specific concerned HR personnel entrusted with duty of attesting the PF forms) that has attested the form and concerned o/o RPFC at which claim is processed.
Demand the certified copy of attested PF forms from employer and RPFC.
The RPFC is under purview of RTI hence RTI route can be adopted.
