Satyam Ramalinga Raju has once again made it to headlines for all the wrong reasons.

The court convicted Satyam Raju and 83 directors of other companies with 1 year jail term in connection with the multi-million Satyam Computers scam. The names of Raju's wife Nandini, sons Teja Raju & Rama Raju and brother's wife Radha have been included in the list.
