Quattrochi held in argentina and released on bail.

There is a red corner notice against him and his wife Maria about fraud and bribery committed in India between 1982-1987. This is obvious about the Bofors deal in late Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi's time. Quattrochi has been widely known as close confident of the Gandhi family.

The British court had given orders to freeze the operations in the two accounts in 2003 after the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) alleged that the money in the accounts was part of the kickback that Quattrocchi had got from Bofors.

In BSI AG Bank, he has € 3 million in account number - 5A51516L and $1 million in account number - 5A51516M.

But the things get merkier as CBI says there is no evidence against him as the congress lead UPA government is ruling and Sonia Gandhi, widow or late Rajiv Gandhi is big boss of congress.
That means congress has much to hide, as this scandal has direct links to the Congress president. The plot deepens as the Quattrochi is actually the husband of Sonia Gandhi's cousin.
