Charges

What this defendant knew

- Never publicly corrected the narrative or warned users
- Benefited from token holdings during concealment period (if held ZERO tokens)
Public identity traces
- LinkedIn: Pooja Khanna
Prosecution's theory
Pooja Khanna's culpability depends on whether she held decision-making authority during the concealment period. The prosecution's theory: if she was a legitimate co-founder who participated in the decision to maintain silence, she is a co-conspirator. If she was merely a peripheral figure who self-identified as co-founder without actual authority, her culpability is reduced but she remains liable as an accessory to conspiracy for failing to disclose known fraud. Her LinkedIn claims create an estoppel — she cannot now claim ignorance while maintaining the co-founder title.
Incriminating exhibits
