A Pune employee, Satyam Shingvi, physically assaulted his boss and damaged his iPhone after being removed from the office WhatsApp group at Insta Go. Pvt Limited on December 1.
Company owner Amol Seshrao Dhoble filed a complaint, leading to the police registering a case against Shingvi under four sections of the penal code.
Previous customer complaints about Shingvi's behavior prompted his removal from the group. Fueled by frustration, Shingvi confronted his boss with a bamboo stick, leading to the assault. Police investigations are ongoing. This incident is one of several recent workplace altercations between employees and bosses.
