A.Dear sir,
Yes but you have to spend lot of money and time. Courts are not interested to give you compensation or impose sentence on him. For litigation sake you may file a civil and criminal defamation case.

A.Dear Client,
When you are released or acquitted by police from the charge of theft, you may have legal recourse against the employer who falsely accused you of a crime of theft. This could include defamation, malicious prosecution, or false imprisonment claims. These civil actions can help you recover damages from the employer for any harm caused by the false accusation. Reach out to an Advocate for guidance and steps.
