Araceli Roiz

Phaneesh Murthy was asked to leave iGate because Araceli Roiz, the company’s head of investor relations, was allegedly pregnant with his child, and the Fremont, California-based IT firm faced the risk of a multi-million dollar lawsuit.

Murthy told the iGate board of his relationship with Roiz only after she informed him that she will be taking legal action against him, Roiz’s legal firm Aiman-Smith & Marcy said in a statement released early this morning May 24, 2013.

“When Araceli Roiz refused to have an abortion, Mr. Murthy attempted to get her to leave the company and keep their relationship a secret,” her legal firm Aiman-Smith & Marcy said in a statement released early May 24, 2013.

“It was not until after Ms Roiz refused to do so and informed him that she would be seeking legal representation and her lawyers contacted Mr. Murthy’s counsel that he reluctantly informed the Board of the relationship, just before the Board would have learned on its own from other sources. On behalf of Ms Roiz, we are contemplating next steps, which will certainly include court action against Mr. Murthy and iGate.”

Controversy now

Araceli Roiz, currently head of investor relation at i-GATE's US office (as on her profile) has filed a complain of sexual harassment against Murthy. i-GATE did investigation externally and found him guilty of not disclosing relationship and fired him. Nowhere the i-GATE has mentioned that he is guilty of sexual harassment. There are also reports in media that Roiz is pregnant and planning to file a lawsuit against Murthy.

In a press release issued in the early hours of this morning of May 23, 2013 , Araceli Roiz’s lawyers claim she was pregnant with Murthy’s child

Phaneesh Murthy was allegedly asked to leave iGate because Araceli Roiz, iGate’s head of investor relations, was pregnant with his child, and the Fremont California based IT firm faced the risk of multi-million dollar lawsuit.

 

In a statement released early this morning by her legal firm Aiman-Smith & Marcy, said, “When Ms Roiz refused to have an abortion, Mr. Murthy attempted to get her to leave the company and keep their relationship a secret.  It was not until after Ms Roiz refused to do so and informed him that she would be seeking legal representation and her lawyers contacted Mr. Murthy’s counsel that he reluctantly informed the Board of the relationship, just before the Board would have learned on its own from other sources. On behalf of Ms Roiz, we are contemplating next steps, which will certainly include court action against Mr. Murthy and iGate.”

 

Earlier in the evening Forbes India had asked Phaneesh Murthy if Ms Roiz was carrying his child. In a brief statement sent through his spokesperson Murthy said, “There are always two sides to the truth and now that the matter is definitely heading to court, I can't comment anymore.”

 

In an investor call on Tuesday, May 21, iGate said Roiz was on a medical leave. 

 

On May 21 when the news of his resignation became public, Murthy had spoken to forbes over telephone from his residence in Fremont, California. He said he had informed the Chairman of the Board of his relationship with Ms Roiz “a couple of months back”. When asked why he chose that time to speak to the Chairman, Murthy said, “There were a variety of reasons”. He refused to say anymore than this.

Shashi Kant Sharma was on Thursday May 23, 2013 sworn in as CAG by President Pranab Mukherjee in the Rashtrapati Bhavan. 

 

The 61-year-old 1976 Bihar cadre IAS officer replaced Vinod Rai, who superannuated yesterday after a five-and-a-half year eventful tenure as the head of the Comptroller and Auditor General of India (CAG). 

 

"Shashi Kant Sharma will have a tenure up to September 24, 2017," an official statement said. 

 

He was holding the post of defence secretary prior to this new assignment. 

 

Sharma's appointment comes at a time when the CAG has come under sharp attack from the government and ruling party for its reports on assessment of Rs 1.76 lakh crore loss in allocation of 2G spectrum. 

 

Under Vinod Rai's tenure, the CAG was accused of going beyond its auditing ambit and indulging in analysing policy decisions. 

 

Vinod Rai, however, had hit back saying the government just wanted the CAG to be an accountant. 

 

The new CAG will have to handle the audit report on AgustaWestland chopper deal, among other reports. He was closely associated with the deal from its early days till its completion in 2010.
