Prominent stock market trader P.R. Sundar has been booked by the Ice House police in Chennai, following serious allegations of sexual harassment, wrongful confinement, and criminal intimidation. A First Information Report (FIR) was filed based on a complaint lodged by a woman news anchor employed with a private television channel.
FIR Filed Under New Legal Provisions
According to police statements, the FIR has been registered under five provisions of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita (BNS). These sections specifically address sexual harassment, various offenses against women, and criminal intimidation. An official investigation into the detailed allegations is now underway.
Allegations Detail Multiple Incidents
The complainant alleges that she initially approached Sundar for employment opportunities. She claims that he later invited her to his residence in Pattinapakkam, where he reportedly behaved inappropriately. Following this incident, she reportedly informed Sundar's wife, but no action was taken.
The woman further alleges that Sundar subsequently requested her to visit his office under the guise of offering an apology for an incident that occurred on June 29, 2026. During this meeting, she claims she was confined to a room for nearly three hours, where she was allegedly subjected to sexual harassment and threatened with severe consequences.
Investigation Continues
While the Chennai police have initiated their inquiry based on the filed FIR, the specific news report cited by the source could not be independently verified. Authorities are expected to continue their investigation into the matter as per legal procedures.
