Sir, in order to protect yourself, I would jot suggest you to initiate any legal proceedings against them or go to the police even, as you mentioned he has connections. What you really want to do it perform some prerequisites and collect evidences against him. If required, I suggest you buy some recording device in form of pen or anything, which has hidden camera with voice recognition capabilities. You must have some evidence in your favour that they are threatening you through goons. Just in case, if it comes down to it, you can file litigation of your own to safeguard your interests.

I wish you the best!

1. File an NCR: Submit a non-cognizable report with the police to document your fears. This creates an official record in case of future incidents.

2. Request Police Protection: Based on the NCR, you may qualify for protection if you feel a serious threat.

3. Send a Letter of Intimation: Write a formal letter to the police detailing your concerns and any threats. This can serve as evidence if false cases are filed against you.

4. Prepare a Statement: Document your situation and concerns, and share it with a trusted person or lawyer.

5. Contact Human Rights Organizations: They may offer support or legal aid in cases involving threats from influential individuals.

6. Consult a Lawyer for Preventive Help: Some lawyers provide limited or pro bono assistance to ensure your actions are legally protective.

7. Document Sensitive Information Securely: If you have critical information, store it securely with a third party as a deterrent.

These steps help protect you legally and create a safety net without direct confrontation.

Dear Client,

Given your concerns about potential threats from your former employer, it is essential to take proactive steps to ensure your safety and legal protection. Under Section 351 of the BNS, criminal intimidation is defined as threatening another person with injury to their person, reputation, or property. If you have experienced threats, you can report these incidents to the police, as they constitute a criminal offense. Documenting any threats you receive is crucial so keep a detailed record of dates, times, and specifics of each incident.

If you feel threatened, consider filing a formal complaint with the local police. You may also request protection under Section 351 of the BNS if the threats are made anonymously or if you believe that there is a risk of harm due to your previous association with the individual. Depending on the severity of the threats and local laws, you might consider seeking a restraining order against the individual if you believe there is an imminent threat to your safety.

Hope this answers your query.

In my opinion your fears are unnecessary. However if you apprehend the company to follow you wherever you shift, you may secretly migrate to some other state .

As the police are in nexus with them  your complaint may not be entertained by police effectively, instead you may be put to face more troubles.

Hence if at all there is any legal issue, you may challenge them based on the documentary evidences in your possession.

- You can file a complaint as information before the police after stating that you was only an employee in that company , and due to left the company the owner is threatening for life and implicating in false cases. 

- Further, you can ask for protection of your life as well. 

- Further , as you have already changed that city , then to hide the present city you can file this complaint in the same city where this company is located or he is residing. 

You can just file a precautionary police complaint in this matter and later contest any false case filed against uou
