SUTHERLAND CHENNAI FIRES 30 SUPPORT GEEKS!!

Everyone there,
Just got 2 hear that Sutherland's Perungudi facility has fired over 30 of their support staff without assigning any reason whatsoever! Most of these guys were recruited recently, and trained on Vista support, but are being shown the door overnight for some unexplained issues! The HR angle to this is:
1. If there is an INTEGRITY ISSUE, how can we in HR be sure that there are no such issues when there is an urgent hiring decision to keep pace with some new technologies?
2. Is there any fool proof way we could look at to prevent such instances in the 1st place and....
3. Can we shy away from the business implications just by firing a handful, which would create a cascading effect on operations??
Any thoughts........... please write
