Hyderabad: A special court conducting the trial of the accounting fraud at erstwhile Satyam Computer Services Ltd will announce the date of verdict on 30 October, nearly six years after corporate India’s biggest scandal came to light.

Additional chief metropolitan magistrate B.V.L.N. Chakravarthi on Monday said he will announce the date of judgement on Thursday, and directed all the 10 accused, including former Satyam chairman B. Ramalinga Raju, to appear before it that day, two lawyers present inside the court hall said.

The judge will also hear last minute arguments from the defence challenging the authenticity of some of the electronic evidence presented by the Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) that investigated the fraud.
