Mumbai shocker: Top pharma boss accused of stripping businesswoman naked at gunpoint
A Mumbai businesswoman has levelled explosive allegations against a senior pharma executive, accusing him of stripping her naked at gunpoint and recording her to blackmail her into silence, media reports said.
The accused has been identified as Joy John Pascal Post, Managing Director and founding member of Franco-Indian Pharmaceuticals (FIPPL).
According to the 51-year-old complainant, Post allegedly invited her to the company’s office under the guise of a business meeting.
Once inside, she claims he subjected her to humiliation, coercion, and sexual harassment—forcing her to remove her clothes at gunpoint.
The accused also allegedly hurled abuses, recorded her nude photos and videos, and warned her that the footage would be leaked if she dared to speak out.
The woman has filed a police complaint naming Post and five others. A case has been registered on charges including sexual harassment, assault, and criminal intimidation.
Police have recorded the victim’s statement and say the role of each accused is under investigation.
This disturbing incident comes even as another shocking case of sexual assault surfaced last week in Kolkata.
Around 9 pm on November 29, a woman waiting for her pre-booked cab was allegedly dragged into a car by three men, including an acquaintance.
She was reportedly forced to drink spiked alcohol and sexually assaulted before being dumped in the Maidan area.
The survivor was later rescued and taken to SSKM Hospital.
Both incidents have sparked outrage, underscoring alarming concerns about women’s safety in urban India.
