A former JPMorgan Chase banker whose 'sex slave' lawsuit made him an unlikely viral sensation has now expanded his legal battle into a sweeping federal case alleging racism, sexual coercion and retaliation. Chirayu Rana filed the amended complaint in the United States District Court for the Southern District of New York on 27 Jul 2026.
The 82-page federal filing, submitted on 27 July, adds new defendants, fresh racial-harassment allegations and a formal defamation claim, months after his original lawsuit against former supervisor Lorna Hajdini went viral online. JPMorgan maintains the claims are meritless, while Hajdini has countersued Rana for defamation.
