Satyam case: When court's verdict on Ramalinga Raju reminded Twitterati of Salman Khan's driver
New Delhi, Apr 9: A special CBI court here on Thursday found B. Ramalinga Raju, his brother Rama Raju and eight others guilty of the multi-crore Satyam scam, which stunned the corporate world in 2009.
Ramalinga Raju, Satyam Computer Services Limited's founder and former chairman, and his brother were found guilty of criminal breach of trust, a CBI lawyer said.
Eight others were declared guilty of criminal conspiracy in the country's biggest accounting fraud.
Considered to be the country's largest scam, the fraud came to light when the company's founder and the then Chairperson B Ramalinga Raju reportedly confessed that he had manipulated the company's account books to the tune of crores across the years. He was arrested just 2 days later by Andhra Pradesh Police's crime investigation department.
Soon after special court's decision, Twitterati went abuzz and B Ramalinga Raju became a trending topic in India.
