Federal prosecutors in Brooklyn have indicted India’s wealthiest man, Gautam Adani, and several associates on multiple counts of fraud under the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act, a U.S. anti-bribery law. Prosecutors accuse Adani of leading a $250 million bribery scheme in India to obtain solar energy contracts worth billions of dollars — and then covering up the graft to raise money from U.S. and international investors. Adani, who is listed as the world’s 19th richest person, with a net worth of more than $85 billion, is a close ally of Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi, who has repeatedly helped the Adani Group win lucrative government contracts.
