The news that a JPMorgan Chase bank executive of Albanian origin had harassed and forced one of her employees to become her "sex slave" made the rounds on the internet. But it seems that this is not the whole truth.
The former JPMorgan Chase banker appears to have a history of fraud and lies. He lied to the company that his father was dying in order to get nearly three months of paid leave — and apparently used the time off to prepare the shocking lawsuit against Lorna Hajdini and his employer.
Sources tell the New York Post that Chirayu Rana, 35, informed supervisors in mid-December 2024 of the alleged death of his father, Chaitanya, and that he needed to take time off work to be with his family — combining various forms of paid leave in addition to five days of mourning.
Sources said the financier, who is now unemployed, was allowed to work remotely since the fall of 2024, when he first reported to bank executives that his father was seriously ill.
He then exhausted a series of permits between early March and late May of last year, when an initial draft complaint was sent to the bank's legal team, people familiar with the matter said.
Rana finally filed his lawsuit nearly a year later, on April 28, in the Supreme Court of the District of New York under the pseudonym “John Doe,” accusing executive director Lorna Hajdini, 37, of drugging him with Rohypnol and Viagra, forcing him to perform degrading sexual acts, and threatening his career if he refused.
Meanwhile, Lorna Hajdini strongly denies the accusations against her.
"Lorna categorically denies the allegations. She has never engaged in any inappropriate behavior with this individual of any kind and has never been to the location where the alleged sexual assault allegedly occurred," the lawyers said.
