Complaint Alleges Job Offer Took Disturbing Turn

The complainant, identified as 31-year-old Vipendra Singh Tomar from Rewa district, told police that he had travelled to Bhopal after being offered work through a mutual contact.

Tomar claimed the atmosphere inside the house changed almost immediately after he began working. He alleged that criticism over the meals he prepared soon escalated into repeated verbal abuse and an intimidating work environment.

"When I observed the abusive environment and expressed my desire to quit the job and return home, they became infuriated," the complainant stated in his report.

The complaint further alleges that his mobile phone was taken away, leaving him unable to contact family members or seek assistance, while he was pressured to continue working despite expressing his intention to leave.

Alleged Assault Under Police Investigation

According to the FIR, Tomar attempted to isolate himself by locking the door of a room after tensions escalated. He alleged that Shashank Singh, Shailesh Singh and the driver forced their way inside before assaulting him.

Police later sent the complainant for a medical examination, which reportedly documented visible injuries on his face and body. Those findings have been added to the investigation file.

Following the complaint, Ratibad Police reportedly registered an FIR against all three accused.
