Tuesday, August 11, 2026
A U.S. federal judge approved the Department of Justice's motion to dismiss the criminal graft case against Indian billionaire Gautam Adani. The judge's approval concluded the federal prosecution that had charged Adani with conspiracy and securities fraud related to alleged bribery in solar energy contracts. Adani faced charges connected to a scheme prosecutors said involved paying bribes to Indian officials to secure favorable terms for solar power projects. The dismissal ended the case without a trial or settlement agreement disclosed.
