Telugu businessmen accused of salary fraud leaving employees in financial strain

In a significant fraud case, Telugu businessmen Kalyan Pathuri, Suresh Doki, and Naveen Doki allegedly cheated 50 to 60 Futuris employees out of millions of dollars. Since 2021, employees had not received promised accumulated salaries, and payments ceased in June 2024, leading to severe financial strain. Many victims, facing losses up to $250,000, struggled with visa status as a result. The scam’s impact deepened post-Akvarr’s acquisition by a third party, which refused to retain employees. The affected individuals are now exploring legal remedies to address this injustice.
