I had joined a new real estate group more than a month ago. I was working as Manager Admin & EA to directors. There were 5-6 Directors in the company. I was handling HR as well and involved in Branding activities too as there was nobody joined in marketing department.
There was a female on front office who was not regular to office and giving interviews here & there. One of our director received a reference check call from some company regarding here employment with us, after that they had a discussion with her and wanted her to resign ASAP. Though she did not resigned and continue with work for another few days. She applied for 6 day leave. Other directors in the company had a discussion with her and told me to send her a termination letter.
I find termination very rude but shoot an email mentioning "the discussion you had with management, they had decided to relieve you from your services as FOE"
The day she was in office for handover she was misbehaving with almost everyone present in office. Using bad words for company and about me with visitors sitting on reception. We explain this thing in front of director available in office. He simply told us to ignore her. That was quite impossible for us, but still we follow what our boss wanted us to.
She handed over stuff and leave office in next two hours. Just after few minutes she left from office, i received text messages from her number to the number allotted via company to me. Messages were abusive and threatening. I was shocked as this was very heartening. I talk to my directors on phone and inform about this to them. They want me to call the consultant immediately and explain things to him too. I did the same. Consultant suggested me to file a police complaint against her on my own and he also mention that what all help i required, he will do surely.
My question is Why the hell Company did not take any single action against her. What will company is responsible for?
I was in office next day to understand if company is doing anything against her or in my favor. I spent whole day asking and explaining the same to them that what if any other employee will do the same with me? What is the security company is giving to their employees and what about females?.
They were asking me to suggest what to do. i suggested them to call that girl in office and ask for Apology letter. But the consultant shocked me with the statement he gave, he said
"that company will not do anything for you, if you wanted to file a police complaint against her you can on your own, and if you do not wanted to continue with us then ask for full and final settlement we will do that for you". He also mentioned "it was you who found those messages threatening then go and sit home you will be safe"
And in that moment i told all three of them (directors & consultant) that i will regret that i was a part of this company and i am not going to continue.
I was not going to office, and was in touch of one of the director for handover process. Handed over stuff i had of that company. Same day i received an email regarding my termination due to my absence without informing official authorities.
Please suggest something i wanted to reply by writing a very strong mail. Also i still have those abusive and threatening messages in my mobile phone.
Can i attach that screenshot with this email ?
Request Seniors to help me in drafting a strong mail.

Dear Isha,
As a HR and as well as an responsible employer i am feeling initially very bad for miss behave and treatment you faced in your company by the fired staff and later on by the employers.
As you were holding a strong position in company but was new to it, same place that girl was quite older in company and must be quite closer to all employees as well as to directors.
What ever situation you described here in it simply says two different things,when employer/consultant is not taking any responsibility to warn/punish her for abusing and misbehaving their good profiled employee( HR) shows ,it is clear that they do not want to make her oppolgise against you , as a new employee they don't think that they should take such strong action to give a message to other employees in company, why they are not interested in punishing her is the real question stands.
And after all scene they terminated you via e mail shows they are not authentic to their profiles as well as not good for employees.
Try to compose a draft indicating all condition,incidents took place in company,write a strict message as an strong professional to them.
Points will Be:
It was a biggest fault of career
when i joined your company
What were the loopholes/secrets of company or directors which that girl was aware of.
Why a single director out of 6 did not stand with me when issues came.
Why company was so flexible for a receptionist and allowed her to abuse,misbehave to any one in office including directors.
in spite of warning/firing her out why directors said you to avoid her actions.
why directors were not serious about abuses,misbehave ,
Say them you are shame full for some time for facing such issues due to them but i am thanks full to God that i did not continued in this company for long time,
As a director you don't have feelings,emotions for employees .
Say them you don't have gurts to face that girl directly that's why you used me as a hr to fire her out.
When an employer cant provide mental,emotional,professional and personal security they don't have any authority or right to introduce as an employer.
Write you don't have any policy even don't have self esteem that's why you tried to avoid all her misbehaves and ask me to do the same.
Tell that job satisfaction,environment,self esteem,self pride supports and provides confidence to anyone to perform at his/her best, all were missing.
Tell them that abuses was came to my inbox but it was directly for directors, as that girl,me and directors all met at common place " named company" that abuses was exactly for you, as i did my job as an responsible employee but you run away to face or answer when i need you for support.
Isha before sending this mail make sure you join any other company, look it was not personal, directors exactly wanted to fire that girl, and the soft medium was you, take this accident as an lesson.
While it was all very insulting,demoralizing but stand as a professional and strong leader. be a keen observer isnpite of quick replier.
Best wishes..
