JPMorgan investment banker Lorna Hajdini, 37, files defamation claims in New York State Supreme Court that respond to sexual-assault allegations she says were fabricated by her former colleague, Chirayu Rana, 35. Multiple outlets report that Hajdini countersues Rana after he accused her of rape and drugging, allegations that became widely circulated online. In her court filings, Hajdini alleges Rana carried out a malicious and orchestrated campaign of false claims intended to maximize press attention, harm her reputation, and seek financial gain from both her and JPMorgan. The reports describe Hajdini’s position that the allegations have caused significant personal and professional harm and that she faces a continuing “daily” and life-altering impact. Across the coverage, Hajdini is portrayed as characterizing Rana’s claims as lies and seeking legal relief. Rana is described by the outlets as the accuser in the underlying dispute. The reporting does not establish the truth of the allegations, focusing instead on the procedural posture and the competing claims presented in the lawsuits.
