A former JPMorgan Chase employee has been identified in US media reports as the claimant in a civil lawsuit alleging sexual harassment and discrimination by a senior executive at the bank. Chirayu Rana, 35, was initially listed in court filings under the pseudonym 'John Doe', but his name has since been reported by the New York Post, citing sources familiar with the case.
The lawsuit, filed in New York, names Lorna Hajdini, an executive director at JPMorgan, as the defendant. In the complaint, Rana alleges that he was subjected to repeated sexual advances, coercion and racial abuse during his time at the firm. The claims have not been proven in court.
