Brooklyn's top federal prosecutor stated he had no basis to dispute the Justice Department's decision. He was not the decisionmaker behind dropping the fraud and bribery case against Gautam Adani. The case involved alleged bribes for a solar power plant development in India. Adani's lawyers and the conglomerate have consistently denied any wrongdoing. The Justice Department cited the case's foreign nature as a reason for dismissal.

Federal prosecutors sought to drop the case against Gautam Adani in May, a significant reversal in a sweeping bribery and fraud scheme.

U.S. prosecutor won't challenge DOJ's dismissal of Gautam Adani's criminal case amid ongoing scrutiny of high-profile legal resolutions.
