he should complain to stock exchange against the sub broker . generally an arbitration clause is incorporated in contracts between broker and his clients . invoke arbitration clause and claim amounts wrongly siphoned by broker

It is Criminal Breach Of Trust and Police Complaint regarding this would be the Right Remedy.

You have to approach SEBI by invoking arbitration clause also you can file breach of contract case

A BROKER OR SUB BROKER IS JUST AN AGENT OF HIS CLIENT AND POA DOES NOT MAKE HIM SUPPER HUMAN,HE IS ALWAYS ACCOUNTABLE TO PRINCIPAL.

The POA should be cancelled immediately and sub broker should be changed. The terms of POA are need to be referred. If Broker / sub Broker has acted beyond the POA terms, notice be sent to him and case for compensation and loss should be filed. Criminal case for breach of trust may also be filed.

If he is a registered sub-broker, a complaint with SEBI about the alleged irregularities and misappropriation/embezzlement etc to be made in writing giving the details immediately apart from lodging a criminal complaint with the jurisdictional police us 420 among other provisions. The embassy will not entertain any complaint in this regard since it is out of heir purview.
