Hyderabad: Amazon, a famous e-commerce company has entangled itself into a controversy. Father of an employee of the Amazon seller services department has alleged that the company cheated them by not extending medical treatment to his son, who was injured in an alleged attack by his colleague.
Shankaraiah, the father of the Amazon employee Sivaram, alleged that his son suffered grievous injuries over his head in an alleged attack by his colleague following an argument over an issue of product delivery. He said they rushed their son to Yashoda hospital in Secunderabad for treatment following a promise by the company that it would bear the entire cost of treatment.
