Life comes a full circle for one of Satyam Computers’ founder Ramalinga Raju. A special CBI court in Hyderabad sentenced him to 7 years in jail and a fine of 5 crore rupees.

Supreme Court Advocate Harish Salve chats with ET NOW’s Sandeep Gurumurthi & Supriya Shrinate to help us understand the legal aspect of this sentence.
