Hi Questioner

Regarding your inquiry, yes, the labour court can suspend your ongoing case if you have any criminal case.

You must finish your criminal case and then after clearance, submit it to the labour court to resume your case.

Yes, the labour court suspend a case or an appeal due to an ongoing criminal case or even just a criminal referral order from the public prosecution against the employee as it may affect the end of service entitlements and the suspension will be until the final judgment from criminal court.
