If it is clear that there is no mens rea on your part then you may go ahead and file a petition for quashing of the FIR in the High Court directly.

See based on findings in charge sheet by police and evidence you can defend the case. The police has power so yes it can file case but if there is no evidence or witness then you will be acquitted.

This is my response to you:

1. You will have to discuss in more detail;

2. Is the charge sheet filed?

3. If no action has taken against you, you have obtained bail then you need not worry for now;

4. Ask the sessions court to dispose of the matter at the earliest;

5. Consult a criminal lawyer and take informed legal opinion.

File a quashing petition in Bombay High Court. You can be freed. The High Court will quash your case. Meet me in R. No. 36 High Court Bombay if you want to move further. Or contact me on mail [deleted]

section 304-II IPC: 

Whoever commits culpable homicide not amounting to murder shall be punished with imprisonment for life, or imprisonment of either description for a term which may extend to ten years, and shall also be liable to fine, if the act by which the death is caused is done with the intention of causing death, or of causing such bodily injury as is likely to cause death;

Or with imprisonment of either description for a term which may extend to ten years, or with fine, or with both, if the act is done with the knowledge that it is likely to cause death, but without any intention to cause death, or to cause such bodily injury as is likely to cause death.

 

You have mentioned that you have registered a complaint under the above section against your company, have you named anyone in particular in your complaint as to responsible for this?

If not then the company may file a report as mentioned by you in your post in general and will remain silent about it.

How are you affected by this?

Why not try for compensation through labor laws?

If ther is no claim by any affected persons then where is the question of the case?

In the criminal case who has been held liable for the accident?

If any company staff has been charge sheeted due to this mishap, he may take the support and shelter under the report submitted by the company to defend his interests.

Dear client 

The only saviour action here can be the member of committee who did the inspection give evidences in your favor.

The only statement he has to give in court is like the failure can be caused even after taking proper care of the machine. And it cannot be said that there was negligence on your part.  

The whole case can be turned in your favor.
