A US district judge in Brooklyn, New York, has ordered Indian conglomerate Adani to submit additional sworn information before the Justice Department’s bid to dismiss a bribery-related indictment can proceed. According to reports, Judge Nicholas Garaufis issued a brief order directing Adani to file written responses under oath by July 15. The judge’s request seeks clarifications on whether any promises, agreements, or deals were tied to the Justice Department’s decision to move to drop the indictment. The order lays out two questions for Adani to answer in its sworn submission. The development follows the DOJ’s procedural step to seek dismissal of the case, prompting the court to ask for further details from the parties involved. The judge’s directive is intended to confirm the basis for the DOJ’s move and the circumstances surrounding any related negotiations or arrangements. No final ruling on the dismissal is reported in the cited accounts, and the matter remains subject to further court review.
