HeadlineJun 21, 2011

There have been a few major developments in the CityTime payroll scandal in New York City that was first exposed by Democracy Now!’s co-host Juan Gonzalez in the pages of the New York Daily News. On Monday, Manhattan U.S. Attorney Preet Bharara unsealed indictments against the company TechnoDyne and its founders on charges of paying millions in kickbacks to get CityTime work, and for money laundering. Meanwhile, the founders of the company, Reddy Allen and his wife Padma, are now fugitives. They recently fled to India. U.S. Attorney Bharara described CityTime as “one of the largest and most brazen frauds ever committed against the city.”
