US President Donald Trump stayed the enforcement of a US law that bans bribery in foreign countries. This decision could affect global corruption investigations, including any potential scrutiny of Indian billionaire Gautam Adani. The law, known as the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (FCPA), is crucial in holding multinational corporations accountable. If enforcement remains weak, cases involving overseas financial dealings may face reduced oversight.
The Adani Group Energy Limited denied bribery allegations from U.S. authorities against Gautam Adani and associates. Rahul Gandhi criticized the government for allegedly protecting Adani, asserting that he should be arrested despite his denial of charges. AGEL clarified there were no violations of the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.
