Sushovan Hussain
Sushovan Hussain is a former chief financial officer of the tech company Autonomy, which was acquired by Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE) in 2011. He gained notoriety for his involvement in a high-profile legal battle surrounding the sale, as HPE accused him and Autonomy's founder, Mike Lynch, of misrepresenting the company's financial status, leading to a significant financial loss for HPE. In 2018, Hussain was convicted in the United States of fraud and other charges related to the sale and received a five-year prison sentence. His legal troubles continued as HPE sought damages from Lynch's estate, further complicating the aftermath of the acquisition.
