SENIOR JPMorgan executive has been accused of sexually assaulting, racially abusing and drugging a junior employee across several months.
Lorna Hajdini, 37, allegedly coerced a married banker into "non-consensual and humiliating sex acts" and threatened his career when he refused her advances, according to a lawsuit.
The accuser, known only as John Doe, claims he was even verbally abused by Hajdini after he broke down in tears during one of the alleged unwanted sexual encounters.
Hajdini, an executive director in JPMorgan Chase's Leveraged Finance division, allegedly also admitted to drugging Doe with a date rape drug on multiple occasions.
The lawsuit also claims Doe was given "an erection-enabling pharmaceutical substance."
Hajdini, who has worked for the company for almost 15 years, is yet to respond to the allegations.

One of the first claims in the New York suit comes from May 2024, as Doe alleges Hajdini dropped a pen on the floor next to his desk and then rubbed his leg and squeezed his calf as she picked it up.

In May 2025, Doe delivered a written complaint to JPMorgan's HR team detailing what he described as race and gender-based discrimination, harassment and a pattern of "severe sexual abuse".
He claims the firm didn't immediately respond but alleges they started retaliating against him.
The suit sees him allege he was sent anonymous threatening phone calls from individuals he believes were acting on behalf of Hajdini and others in the company.
One caller allegedly told him: "Just wait 'till you're back in New York, Brown boy. "You better stay away snitch."
