Professor Kotagiri had been employed by the university for almost 40 years when he was accused in court documents of exploiting his role as a supervisor to arrange private meetings with an international student during her doctorate studies. "The second defendant [Professor Kotagiri] repeatedly asked the plaintiff to meet him in his office. He intimidated the plaintiff into doing so by making it clear that he was in control of her candidature, '' according to the statement of claim.The PhD student criticised the prestigious university for not taking proper action after earlier harassment claims against the professor.
However, the student was advised in September 2016 that no action would be taken against the long-serving professor.Ms Munir said she was astonished the university had failed to discipline Professor Kotagiri, who continued to mentor female PhD students without supervision. She said the university had offered no support, but threatened to suspend or cancel her PhD studies when she was on stress leave because of the alleged assaults.
