secure sftp login not working in RedHat Linux

I'm using RedHat Linux 6.1 and wanted to create an user account with only access to single directory. Have followed all the steps from below link and still user is not able to login:

How to Setup Chroot SFTP in Linux (Allow Only SFTP, not SSH) (link removed)

While the other users, which are not part of sftpusers group, are able to successfully login from remote machines

The error I see is as below:

Code:
debug1: Next authentication method: publickey
debug1: Offering public key: /home/touchpnt/.ssh/id_rsa
debug1: Authentications that can continue: publickey,gssapi-with-mic,password
debug1: Offering public key: /home/touchpnt/.ssh/id_dsa
debug1: Authentications that can continue: publickey,gssapi-with-mic,password
debug1: Next authentication method: password
abdul@cemapp's password:
debug1: Authentication succeeded (password).
debug1: channel 0: new [client-session]
debug1: Requesting no-more-sessions@openssh.com
debug1: Entering interactive session.
Write failed: Broken pipe
Couldn't read packet: Connection reset by peer

I have made sure that parent directory belongs to root(both user and group) and sub directory belongs to user under test(and group is set as sftpusers)

Have referred to many threads on this issue, but none of them is really useful in fixing this. Also my setting in /etc/ssh/sshd_config is "UsePAM no"
