On May 9, Neel Somani announced that he was facing serious sexual misconduct allegations. However, he denied these allegations, describing himself as a “public face” and stated he would step down from his position. Somani denied the accusations, stating he had never sexually assaulted or harassed any woman. He also mentioned that he would strive to defend himself and clear his name.
