I am a permanent resident of UK and could not give sufficient notice to my employer before leaving the country.As a result, they did not submit my PF forms to the PF office and I am yet to receive my PF amount. Now they are planning to sue me. They have my passport number. I have asked my relatives in India not to accept the notice sent my the employers lawyer. Can u tell me what are the repurcussion if they file a suit and I do not appear in court for the hearings. Will I be arrested if I return to India? As this is a civil case, to what extent can it go.? The amount involved in a sum of Rs. 1 lakh. What is the best course of action? Should I pay up and settle?
