🚨 OCCRP rehashes debunked 2023 claims — pure recycled propaganda This is NOT new. It’s the same old Hindenburg 2.0 narrative about two long-time legitimate global investors (UAE’s Nasser Ali Shaban Ahli & Taiwan’s Chang Chung-Ling), who were business associates of Adani Group with past director roles in affiliated entities. They invested ~$3 billion in listed Adani stocks through fully regulated hedge funds in 2023. 📌 Important context on regulatory findings, disclosures, and funding sources Indian law does not require listed companies to track/disclose sources of funds for public shareholders beyond mandatory rules; listed firms have no control over independent trades or visibility into such investments. Adani spokesperson: "Any suggestion that promoter shareholding has been misstated or concealed is incorrect." (From OCCRP article itself) SEBI investigated core Hindenburg allegations (incl. related-party/manipulation claims involving similar entities/transactions). In Sept 2025 final orders on two flagged sets: allegations "not established," no violations found (transactions not related-party under then-applicable rules; no manipulation). Stocks rose post-orders. - SEBI order (Adicorp): sebi.gov.in/sebi_data/attach… - SEBI order (Milestone/Rehvar): sebi.gov.in/sebi_data/attach… - Reuters (Sep 19, 2025): SEBI dismissed manipulation claims, no breaches; stocks climbed. reuters.com/sustainability/b… Supreme Court (Jan 2024) upheld SEBI's probe, noting confidence in process; rejected transfer requests. Swiss probe into Chang (money laundering/forgery suspicions, assets frozen ~$311M) ongoing since 2021; no charges as of report (Aug 2024 court ruling rejected unfreeze appeal). Adani denies involvement. US cases (2024 indictment/SEC complaint on bribery) ongoing; Adani calls baseless. OCCRP receives significant funding from US government (USAID/State Dept, historically ~50% of budget pre-2025) and Open Society Foundations (George Soros). Critics, including India's ruling BJP, accuse it of pushing anti-India narratives targeting PM Modi and Adani Group (e.g., via reports amplified by opposition). OCCRP states donors have no editorial control. - Mediapart (Dec 2024): mediapart.fr/en/journal/inte… - OCCRP funding: occrp.org/en/about-us/annual… - Reuters/The Hindu (Dec 2024): thehindu.com/news/national/u… Report recycles prior elements (e.g., ties from dismissed 2007/2014 DRI cases). Adani maintains full compliance; investments by public shareholders via regulated funds. Adds regulatory outcomes, legal status, Indian disclosure rules, and funding context for balanced view.

Ever wondered why Sabeer Bhatia never created another Hotmail? 🧐 Because Hotmail was never his solo achievement. Bhatia and Jack Smith jointly developed the browser-based email service. Bhatia led the brokerage work, while Smith played a central role in building the technology. Microsoft acquired their company for around $400 million in stock. After Hotmail, Bhatia tried Arzoo, SabseBolo, Live Documents, Jaxtr, AMP Technologies and ShowReel. None came remotely close to replicating Hotmail’s success, while some eventually shut down. One successful exit nearly three decades ago does not make his present political commentary credible. His attacks on Modi and Adani must stand on evidence, not on a reputation built from a company created by Jack Smith. Meanwhile, Jack Smith, the real deserving founder of Hotmail, has done quite well in his life. What do you think... why is he doing his anti-India nonsense? Who is his current master? Let me know in the comments below... ⬇️
Let me be absolutely clear: I neither produced nor directed the documentary. My role was solely to distribute it. There is a fundamental difference between creating content and exercising the right to share it.

Sabeer Bhatia Exposed 🔥
Sabeer Bhatia: From Hotmail Co-Founder To Full-Time Social Media Troll! 🥶 Nearly three decades ago, Sabeer Bhatia co-founded Hotmail with Jack Smith before Microsoft acquired it in 1997 for a reported $400 million. But what came after Hotmail tells a very different story. > Hotmail was built with co-founder Jack Smith, not by Bhatia alone > Arzoo, Jaxtr, InstaColl and Live Documents failed to produce another comparable global success > His biggest business achievement still dates back to 1997 > Yet today, Bhatia regularly lectures India on growth, taxation, billionaires and economic policy Technology moved from basic webmail to AI. New founders built billion-dollar companies and transformed entire industries. Bhatia moved from building businesses to being a troll for everyone else. From Hotmail to a Troll, what a fall.

Raj Thackeray: “Watch it before the government makes it disappear.” Translation: “I don’t have new evidence, so let me sell you urgency instead.” Nothing markets a political video better than pretending you are watching forbidden knowledge. Btw, is this you meeting Adani? 🧐
