A city court on Thursday sentenced 80 directors belonging to 19 firms affiliated to the erstwhile Satyam Computers Ltd to one-year imprisonment in an income tax evasion case.
In addition, four women directors were sentenced to six months imprisonment. The sentenced directors included Ramalinga Raju, founder and ex-chairman of Satyam Computers, his wife Nandini, son Rama Raju and Radha, wife of Raju’s brother.
However, all the directors were immediately granted bail by the court.
