“I’m a Survivor, Not a Victim”: Tech Founder Alleges Harassment by Wife and Chennai Police

Prasanna Sankar, a Chennai-based tech entrepreneur and founder of software company Rippling, has taken to social media to level serious allegations against his estranged wife and the Chennai Police. In a long post that has gone viral, Sankar accused his wife of harassment and the local police of tracking him illegally while he tries to fight for custody of his son.

According to Sankar, the trouble began after he discovered his wife’s alleged affair. He claims she then filed a false police complaint of domestic violence to push for a hefty divorce settlement. He further alleged that she took their 9-year-old son to the United States without his consent, prompting him to file an international child abduction case. Sankar said a US court ruled in his favor and ordered a joint custody agreement, including financial support of Rs 9 crore and Rs 4.3 lakh per month.

However, Sankar alleged that his wife later violated the agreement and refused to deposit the child’s passport in a shared locker. He also claimed that she filed a kidnapping complaint against him in India, which led to police officers visiting his hotel at night. Fearing arrest, he fled with his son and later accused the Chennai Police of illegal tracking, warrantless raids on friends’ homes, seizing mobile phones, and threatening his acquaintances.

The tech founder has since announced that he plans to file a legal petition to stop the alleged harassment.

In response, his wife Divya has denied all allegations and made serious counterclaims. She accused Sankar of forcibly taking their son, financial fraud, and being a sexual predator. Divya alleged that Sankar secretly recorded women and had been arrested in Singapore, as well as during a sting operation in India. She also claimed he transferred family assets to his father’s brother in Thailand to evade taxes.
