White House confident amid Adani allegations
NEW DELHI [Maha Media]: The White House has acknowledged the serious allegations levelled against Indian industrial magnate Gautam Adani, the chairman of Adani Group, indicted in New York for an alleged multibillion-dollar bribery and fraud scheme.
White House Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre, during her daily briefing, reassured the public on the resilience of the US-India relationship. Despite the allegations, she expressed belief in the ability of both nations to handle the issue without jeopardizing their solid partnership.
"We're aware of these allegations," Jean-Pierre stated, directing further queries to the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and Department of Justice (DOJ) for specifics concerning the charges against Adani Group. She emphasized that the US-India relationship remains robust and is built on a solid foundation anchored in ties between the people and cooperation on global issues.
Jean-Pierre further asserted confidence in the two nations' capacity to navigate the allegations as they have with prior issues. She noted that while the SEC and DOJ are suited to address specifics, the foundation of US-India ties remains unaffected. Meanwhile, the US Attorney's Office for the Eastern District of New York unveiled criminal charges against Gautam Adani, his nephew Sagar Adani, and other executives related to an alleged bribery scheme.
The Adani Group has vigorously denied the bribery allegations, which were put forth by the US Department of Justice and the US Securities and Exchange Commission, asserting their baselessness. "The charges against directors of Adani Green are denied and unfounded," proclaimed an Adani Group spokesperson, emphasizing their intent to seek all legal remedies.
The group further accentuated the legal process, underlining that the DOJ itself noted the charges remain allegations until proven otherwise, with defendants presumed innocent. Adani Group declared it would engage all possible legal avenues in response to the situation.
