Hindenburg Research ne SEBI ki Chairperson Madhabi Puri Buch par direct attack kiya, unke aur unke husband ke offshore funds me stakes hone ka aarop lagaya, jinka connection alleged Adani cash siphoning scandal se hai.
Hindenburg ke naye report me yeh claim kiya gaya ki Madhabi Buch aur unke husband ke paas multi-layered offshore fund structure me stakes the, jisme kam assets the aur jo high-risk jurisdictions se connected tha. Is fund ko ek company ne operate kiya tha jiska Wirecard scandal se connection tha, aur yeh fund wahi tha jo Vinod Adani ne Adani scandal me use kiya.
SEBI Chairperson par
Hindenburg ne yeh naye allegations ek whistleblower ke documents aur dusre entities ke investigations ke basis par lagaye hain. Adani Watch ka ek investigation December 2023 me batata hai ki kaise Gautam Adani ke bhai Vinod Adani ke control wale offshore entities ko power equipment ke alleged over-invoicing se paise milte the. Ek complex structure me, Vinod Adani ke control wali company ne Bermuda ke “Global Dynamic Opportunities Fund” (GDOF) me invest kiya, jo fir Mauritius ke IPE Plus Fund 1 me invest karta tha.
Report me yeh bhi bataya gaya ki Madhabi Buch aur unke husband ne June 5, 2015 ko Singapore me IPE Plus Fund 1 ke saath apna account khola tha. Whistleblower documents ke according, inhone apne investment source ko “salary” declare kiya aur inka net worth $10 million estimate kiya gaya.
Madhabi Buch ko April 2017 me SEBI ka “Whole Time Member” banaya gaya. Usse pehle, March 22, 2017 ko, Madhabi ke husband ne Mauritius fund administrator Trident Trust ko email likha, jo inke Global Dynamic Opportunities Fund me investment ke baare me tha. Is email me unhone apni wife ke naam se assets hatakar apne naam par kar liye.
February 25, 2018 ko, jab Madhabi Buch SEBI ke Whole-Time Member the, unhone India Infoline ko apni private Gmail account se email kar ke fund ke units redeem kiye, apne husband ke naam se business karte hue, Hindenburg ne report kiya.
Report me ek aur instance mention kiya gaya jisme Buch ke offshore funds me ownership ka zikar hai. March 27, 2013 ko, Singapore me Agora Partners Pte Ltd register hua, jisme Madhabi Buch 100% shareholder thi, jo March 16, 2022 tak rahi.
Madhabi Buch ne apni stake apne husband ke naam transfer kar di thi, jo unhone conflict of interest ke politically sensitive nature ko dekhte hue kiya, jab yeh kabhi disclose hota.
Yeh sabse important hai kyunki direct email evidence dikhata hai ki SEBI ki Chairperson, Madhabi Buch, apne private email se offshore fund entities me apne husband ke naam se business kar rahi thi, Hindenburg ne report me conclude kiya.
