Dear Sir,
A techinician from Nellore(Andhra Pradesh) was working in a Chemical factory in Hyderabad.He was living in secundarabad & was commuting from secundarabad to hyderabad.The company transferred his services to a factory located outside India where he stayed & worked for 5 months.His services were again transferred to factory in Hyderabad.upon returning to India,he visited his home town Nellore where he suddenly fell ill and developed problems in Breathing,and took medicines for the same.He went bck to Secundarabad where he again took doctor's help & was admitted to hospital where he was found to have developed a severe Infection in Lungs due to a particular chemical he was exposed to while he was working out of India.the person expired due to same infection in a hospital in secundarabad.
The company had published a advisory/guideline for prevention with that chemical which was not adhered to by the management due to which the employee lost his life.the family members wish to file a case of negligence against them.Pls let us know if a criminal case can be registered against the company in Nellore & Courts there have Jurisdiction for hearing the offence(since infection occured out of india & The deceased being a native of nellore,his legal heirs living there,the disease being first discovered & treated there & he was cremated there)?
Warm Regards
