Back in 2007, I was a bank employee and faced a serious situation. A shortage of 4 lakhs was discovered in the cash I was responsible for. The bank suspended me and even filed a complaint against me at the police station under section 406. Both the bank and the police conducted separate investigations. Sadly, the police, known for their ways, pressured me for a bribe promising a favorable report. In 2008, the police finally submitted a charge-sheet against me in court, while the bank also completed their internal inquiry and reinstated me in February 2009. They did give me a two-increment cut as punishment. My question is, with the bank reinstating me after the police filed a charge-sheet, can the court still take action on it, or is the matter closed?

The court can still proceed with the case despite your reinstatement by the bank. The bank’s decision is independent of the criminal proceedings. The court will examine the evidence presented by the prosecution and decide based on its own merits.
