EASTON, CT – Today, Suni Munshani, the former CEO of a Connecticut-based technology company that provided data security services, has been sentenced to 42 months in prison for his involvement in a scheme to defraud his former employer of millions of dollars. U.S. District Judge Jed S. Rakoff imposed the sentence.
Munshani created an email account in the name of his deceased uncle, which he used to correspond with his former employer and obtain payments for services that were never provided. Additionally, Munshani defrauded the company through fraudulent licensing and reseller agreements. Munshani, 61, of Easton, Connecticut, was sentenced to three years of supervised release, with the court reserving decision on the amount of restitution.
