usually they wont .. but they would scare him like giving him a lawyer letter... since his salary and position is not high. As what others say its a bad impression given and words spreads. The best thing i can think of is to sit down and talk to your manager/ HR manager to work out a repayment plan. Usually they would cut it to 1 month only. Be nice and sincere with them. Most would appreciate it and.. do a proper handover with sign off. so this way you proved that you had done your part. 1 important point get all your dues first b4 u go.. salary collected,bonu, claims and ect.. good luck
