Maxis unable to comment on Ananda’s case in India

Maxis Bhd said it was not in a position to comment on media reports regarding the Aircel-Maxis case.

In a filing with Bursa Malaysia, the telecommunication service provider said its unit, Maxis Mobile, has not been served with any official documents and was not aware of the allegations made against it.

It was reported that Maxis founder T Ananda Krishnan was among 18 named in India’s Central Bureau of Investigation’s charge sheet for the case.

According to the CBI, Maxis sought approval to subscribe for Rs18 crore worth (US$2.7 million) of Aircel shares in 2008 at 10 rupees each and amounting to Rs180 crore.
