Rengan Rajaratnam has filed a civil action in New York State Supreme Court against his brother Raj and various Galleon entities, claiming that he was fraudulently induced into settling his commission and compensation claims for a small fraction of what he was owed, and that he has a right to indemnification from the defendants for legal and other expenses he incurred in defending himself in the civil and criminal insider trading cases against him. He seeks damages of at least $13.5 million, together with interest, attorneys’ fees and disbursements. This article summarizes his allegations.
