Citing the evidence, one email shows the sender telling Hajdini that they hoped she would be ‘gang raped. The sender urges her to commit selfharm and wishes death on her family. Other emails from unknown people reveal the sexual threats the executive has been receiving. An anonymous user has volunteered to become her ‘slave’ in one email cited by Reuters. Another email mocks Hajdini’s accuser Chirayu and offers sexual favours.
Hajdini, in her countersuit, has called the allegations fabricated to inflict maximum pain and destroy her career.
In April, Chirayu Rana filed a lawsuit under a pseudonym ‘John Doe’, accusing Hajdini of coercing him for sexual acts, targeting him with racial slurs, and threatening to destroy his career if he refused to lend sexual favours. JPMorgan has, however, stood with the senior executive Hajdini, saying that no evidence of misconduct was found in an internal investigation.
