Pachauri cancels Nairobi visit

Pachauri has been accused by a junior associate at the Delhi-based TERI, which he heads, of sexually harassing her. The victim told police she feared Pachauri would run away from law if he was allowed to leave the country.

On Saturday evening, legal rights activist Indira Jaising also expressed similar apprehension at a press conference.

Senior advocate Vrinda Grover, who was also present, claimed that another woman, an ex-employee of TERI who had worked there 10 years ago, has also come out with similar complaints against Pachauri though she had not approached the police yet.
