Hi TS,
By alerting the future employer, I am buying time so that the pilfered data remains unused. Further to your query, he is definitely going to be sacked. I do not wish to keep track of him wherever he goes, but by keeping his immediate future employer in the loop, I am trying to buy time as explained above. Once things are sorted out, how do I care where he joins or not?
A circular has been passed on that very day to all the employees, highlighting that any such offenses would be dealt with severely.
A consultant (legal advisor) had been roped in, on whose advice we decided to draft a letter informing his future employer.
He cannot ever claim that he was coerced, as our IT surveillance team has all the details of the mails being forwarded along with attachments. This information is available with HR & IT with the minutest of details. In fact, it is only after showing him the evidence that he decided to confess and give us in writing.
The cybercrime cell had also been informed, along with a complaint being lodged at the local police station.
I don't know what gives some members the feeling that I am after this guy's life!! Hahaha... On a lighter note... thanks, friends, for sharing. I value your views and suggestions. Bhargavi, you too, please keep contributing :).

Hello VN,
Looks like things are moving on the right track. However, I am still not 'very comfortable' with the idea of YOU informing his next employer—did you check, from different sources, on whose behest he did this?
I suggest getting it done discreetly rather than YOUR COMPANY getting involved—a call can go to them that there's a cybercrime case going on against this guy... or something like that. Just give this a thought.
All the Best.
