The Allegations: Accusations of Kidnapping and Misconduct<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Dhivya had previously accused Sankar of:
\u2714\ufe0f Illegally abducting<\/strong> their son from the U.S. to India
\u2714\ufe0f Being a “sex predator”<\/strong> who secretly recorded women
\u2714\ufe0f Transferring assets to evade taxes
\u2714\ufe0f Forcing her<\/strong> into a divorce agreement<\/p>\n\n\n\n

She further alleged that Sankar had manipulated the legal system in Singapore, India, and the U.S. to gain custody of their child.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Prasanna Sankar\u2019s Response: Presenting Evidence<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Sankar responded with a series of social media posts<\/strong>, systematically addressing each claim. He stated that:
\u2714\ufe0f His wife abducted<\/strong> their son from Singapore to the U.S. and “brainwashed” him into believing his father had abandoned him.
\u2714\ufe0f The alleged kidnapping<\/strong> claim was false, as their legal agreement permitted him to pick up the child.
\u2714\ufe0f His arrest in Singapore<\/strong> over “secretly recording women” was dismissed<\/strong> due to lack of evidence.
\u2714\ufe0f A U.S. court ruled in his favor<\/strong> regarding child custody.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Legal Battle Over Child Custody<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Sankar provided legal documents that detailed:
\u2714\ufe0f A 50\/50 custody agreement<\/strong> with Dhivya, ensuring shared parenting.
\u2714\ufe0f Court orders that contradicted Dhivya’s claims of being forced into a settlement.
\u2714\ufe0f Financial agreements, proving he was paying $5,000 per month in child support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

He also demanded that his son\u2019s passport be secured in a joint locker<\/strong> to prevent future abduction attempts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Allegations of Police Harassment in Chennai<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Adding another layer to the controversy, Sankar accused Chennai police of corruption<\/strong>, claiming:
\u2714\ufe0f His friend Gokul was illegally arrested<\/strong> for helping him pick up his child.
\u2714\ufe0f Police allegedly demanded Rs 25 lakh<\/strong> to release Gokul.
\u2714\ufe0f Authorities were tracking his location and IP address<\/strong> unlawfully.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A Bitter Divorce With Global Implications<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The legal feud between Sankar and Dhivya has caught global attention<\/strong>, highlighting the complexities of cross-border child custody battles and legal disputes in high-net-worth divorces<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While the legal proceedings continue, both sides remain locked in a war of allegations, counterclaims, and court rulings<\/strong> spanning India, the U.S., and Singapore.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

What\u2019s Next?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

As the case unfolds, it remains to be seen how courts in India and the U.S. will handle the custody dispute<\/strong> and whether Sankar’s claims of police misconduct will be investigated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For now, the high-stakes battle between the Rippling co-founder<\/strong> and his estranged wife continues to make headlines, drawing intense scrutiny from the public and legal experts.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
