A former employee who reportedly flagged the alleged abuse of toddlers at a daycare operating inside Capgemini’s Bengaluru campus was fired after informing the management.
The employee had earlier reported the mistreatment to the daycare supervisor but no action was taken. Instead, the whistleblower allegedly lost their job, according to an NDTV report citing Probation Officer Tilakesh Kumar.
Kumar also said officials had long suspected child abuse at the facility but lacked evidence until disturbing videos surfaced this week.
According to Kumar, the daycare had around 50 to 60 children enrolled, with nearly 15 to 20 attending every day.

He said the situation changed after the complainant shared videos documenting the alleged abuse, prompting immediate action by the authorities.
