harresment to indian worker in tema, ghana

This is very bad.. esp our own people doing this to our blood in a different country. They are just moneyminded people willing to put our own country's reputation at stake.
I feel sad and esp when I might come to Ghana in near future, I'm more concerned!
Too bad...
Plz accept my condolences my dear friend...
Raj.

Dear All, this is very serious matter in Africa, for me this is not a NEW ICCIDENT, this happens with many Indians & very unfortunetly this is also done by our own Indian community.

There are companies in GHANA & other part of Africa who blocks 2-3 months salary so employee can not go himself back to the country & give very bad treatment to expats.
I suggest you to contact Indian Embassy in Ghana & take this matter up.

This is the info of Indian Embassy in Ghana.

Gulati ( mobile no. 44352250) puting false allegation of fund emblezment.He is working their as accounts manager and to handle cash they have different person working as cashier. This is the nature of Management as he has demanded his salary unpaid for 6 months. instate of paying such huge salary , it is always better to lodge a complain which is less expensive and forced the person to return India without salary.

If you can help in any way to get justice to Prateek Mohan, please write back to me at mchakravorty01@gmail.com, I will be thankful to you.

Sorry to hear abtyour friend but this man Gulati is notorious for this kind of behaviour, ask your friend to approach the indian High commision in Accra, they will definetly help hin in sorting out the matter,or he should approach Mr. ashok Mohinani(Indian association President) Exe.Dir Poly Group of Companies

This is nothing new here in Ghana. The Indian embassy is of no help here. I am currently facing a problem with my employer and they have not paid me my salary for,last three months. Most of the Indian companies have good hold here in Ghana and one cannot do too much harm to them on this soil... In my case, I have my decision clear to my company that I will leave on 2nd Oct 2013 and have accordingly booked my ticket.. Only before I leave, if my company doesn't pay me, I will lodge a complaint in to Indian embassy with a copy of the same I will fly off. Once in India, I will file a complaint with the MEA, Labour ministry and a cout case against the Indian owner from Kolkata.. he hails from Kolkata and has his properties there... After 1st October I will update you all my status... May be any other victim can try the same and let me know..

After 1st October I will,reveal the name of the owner and the company... Many of you may know him....

Hi Santu,

I am sorry to hear your case and was eager to know the employer's name as I have been offered a job from an IT company in Ghana.

Has your strategy worked ? or showing in any signs of positive results ?
