The Delhi Police have filed a case against a CEO of a digital marketing firm for allegedly sexually harassing a 20-year-old intern over a period from November 2022 to April 2023. The intern, who joined the company through a university placement program, reported that the CEO frequently called her at odd hours and made inappropriate remarks about her appearance. She alleged that he kissed her hand and hugged her without consent after she confided in him about personal issues. After confronting him via WhatsApp about his behavior, the CEO reportedly apologized but dismissed his actions as part of 'corporate Delhi culture.' Following her complaints to the Human Resources department, the intern was asked to leave the internship prematurely on April 15, 2023. The FIR was registered under several sections of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, including sexual harassment and criminal intimidation, and an investigation is currently underway.
