22-Jul-2023 (In Civil Law)
On of my employee who has been sacked from the company is spreading false messages online through different fake profiles. I have some screenshots where I can prove that the person who has left the reviews was our employee not our client. His behaviour in the company was not good and several employees know about it too. Now is is defaming the company reputation by false reviews. I am a startup company and facing huge challange because of this.
Based on the facts mentioned in your question you can file the case of civil nature against the person for claim of damage against the person/past employee also a criminal complaint can be filed against them for which he will be prosecuted and punished. More specific advice will be provided only after seeing the reviews posted by that person
On the above-mentioned query please file immediately a first information report under IT Act against the employee with the annexure i.e. the screenshots you
