    Adani and the other defendants allegedly paid more than $250 million in bribes to Indian government officials to obtain “lucrative solar energy supply contracts with the Indian government.”

    Bruh they did this in Pakistan a decade ago and it was probably the smaller of the crimes committed by the political mafia lol (of which practically no one served any meaningful time in jail).

    Almost like the only way to get that much money isn’t by working hard but by cheating others out of it. Man if only we had a machine to take care of things like this. I know the French do

    Modi isn’t going to like this. India-China rapprochement probably incoming.
