India's Press Trust of India quoted a notice issued by the New York Eastern District Court on November 21, reporting that billionaire Gautam Adani and his nephew Sagar Adani were summoned by the US Securities and Exchange Commission to explain their position on the allegations of bribery to win solar energy contracts.
The subpoenas were delivered to their residence in Ahmedabad, requesting a response within 21 days.
If the Adani family fails to respond on time, an absentee judgment will be made against them.
According to reports, the Supreme Court of India has received a new request asking Indian authorities to investigate the bribery allegations.
