This is too general a question to answer. Also, in light of the nature of your request I'd advise consulting an attorney to review any possible claims.

I would suggest that you take the matter up with your immediate supervisor and, perhaps, with the Commissioner of the Revenue, if appropriate. These folks should be able to advise you as to the most appropriate course of action for you to take under the circumstances.
