A former Credit Suisse Group AG trader who says his job drove him to depression and thoughts of suicide sued the Swiss bank in London in a personal injury claim after losing a related employment tribunal case.

Asif Mohamedali, who earned as much as $4.3 million a year in the European credit trading team before he was fired in 2009, claimed overwork and bullying by his boss led him to be hospitalized with severe depression, according to a November court filing that was released last week.
