Overview
- Investigators have filed nine FIRs and now count eight arrested employees, with a Special Investigation Team led by ACP Sandeep Mitke coordinating the cases.
- Six female officers worked undercover inside the Nashik unit for about 40 days to document behavior and gather first-hand evidence, police said.
- Detectives are reviewing more than 40 CCTV clips along with WhatsApp chats, emails, and call logs, and they allege internal complaints were ignored or discouraged by HR.
- The complaints, largely from women in their early careers, detail sexual harassment, a relationship coerced on the promise of marriage, and pressure to follow Islamic practices, while one male employee reports religious harassment.
- TCS has suspended the named staff and launched an internal inquiry under COO Aarthi Subramanian, unions are pushing for nationwide POSH audits, and police have alerted ATS and NIA as they test for any external links without reaching a conclusion.
