Shiva Nandy Replies to Ex Employee's Allegations

Here are the important points extracted from the text:

Nandy refuted Jollies' allegation, laying it to a logistics issue of sharing the room, and he moved to another room. He did not have an affair and called his encounter with Jollies for a drink as being consensual, and all for career discussion. He admitted in hindsight that a public location would have been better. In regards to the reported improper touching, Nandy stated he provided a comforting shoulder and perhaps a head pat in comforting distressed Jollies, treating her as a sister. He stated the incident prompted POSH seminars.

A part of his response read, "I agree that Skyesports is not the most formal place to work, we are not what the world would  consider as a organised place to work, we have tried to make our work culture as relaxed as we can,  as in the esports industry there are times that it can get very stressful and a stressing office place is  the last thing we expect our employees to want."

Nandy also provided records regarding Jollies' performance and Sadhak's behavior, noting he does not aim to defame anyone and views the allegations as an experience.
