An Indian languages professor at Aligarh Muslim University in Lucknow, India, was driven from his job in mid-February after a TV news crew burst into his house and taped him having sex with a male "rickshaw puller," the Times of India reported Feb. 18.
The report said that students sent the TV crew to Dr. Shrinivas Ramchandra Siras' residence and that the footage was later shared with university officials.
University spokesman Rahat Abrar called the incident "a scandal that no institution of repute can overlook."
The school suspended Siras for "gross misconduct" and he then decided to leave.
A Delhi High Court decision last year legalized gay sex in India.
