You can get back the PF, your as well as the employer contribution with uptodate interest. Use the online PF withdrawal Form. As regards gratuity, financial embezzlement calls for forfeiture of gratuity, partially or fully. Before forfeiture, you have to be issued a show cause notice. It appears none has been issued. If still gratuity has been withheld, you can give an application to the Controlling Authority under the PGA 1972 (the local Labour Officer) and claim it you will get it with simple interest.
You were paid half salary, for some period and full salary for some period (most likely during the domestic enquiry and not while pending at court) , the respective disciplinary rules have to be seen, to understand this. If you have any queries regarding the same, pl attach the rules, a definite opinion can be given.
Since the matter is before the court and has not been decided, it is sub judice and depending on the outcome further course can be decided. As such it looks like you can expect a favourable outcome.
