Finally, India has its Enron, too. In an unprecedented scale of magnitude, Satyam's CEO Ramalinga Raju confessed to have cooked the book of the IT-company which had claimed to be No. 4 in the country. In the aftermath, the stock of the company collapsed by 70 %. Raju whose whereabouts after his written confession have been unknown, is expected to appear before SEBI, the Indian stock market regulator, tomorrow by 4 pm:

The result of this shameful fallout, up to 15,000 employees might get sacked in the next days and salaries have been frozen for 2 months:

Shame on Ramalinga Raju who has broken trust of everyone who had held Satyam in good faith.

René,
What happened is unfortunate, and one can point a "moral-finger" at Raju. Through criminal prosecution, the law should take it's course.
But let's not forget, before using words like "shame on...", that this very man, Mr. Raju,..
* created a company from scratch (1 employee in 1987)
* that had run well for some 22 years,
* created thousands of jobs over the years,
* fed many families,
* paid taxes to Republic of India,
* made many 1000's rich in the stock market of Mumbai and New York, and,
* created an IT company that many millions have been proud of for many years (and still are).
So while wrong-doing should be punished, and will be, little guys like you and me should use some retrain in our language!
Ashant
