Pfizer Finance Executive Blows the Whistle

At a meeting in New York he received a shock, when he was suddenly told that Hocine Sidi Said had been designated as the new country manager of the merged Pfizer/Park-Davis organization. More here.

Pramod Lele resigned and took over as the CEO of Hinduja Hospital in 2003 (more here), and later that same year Pfizer's surveillance of him started.

According to the surveillance reports, the investigators working for Pfizer also obtained Mr. Lele's phone records from the Indian cell phone service provider Orange (Orange was later renamed "Hutch").

These phone records have most likely been obtained through "pretexting" a practice in which someone impersonates a person to obtain his private data.

This is a practice which led to the resignation of Hewlett-Packard's chairwoman, Patrica Dunn.

In her case the target was a board member on her own Board of Directors.

Idnani has in his correspondence with Pfizer asked whether any Judge of the Bombay High Court who was hearing the Dinesh Lakhani vs. Parke-Davis. case, was also followed.

He considered this a possibility because he had seen another document, which he no longer has access to, attached to the surveillance reports with a listing of people who were monitored, in which at the top the initials "HCJ 2" was followed vertically by "Lakhani," "Janak," "PL," "Phene."

Pfizer is not likely to tell us.

But one thing is clear.

Pfizer may very well be in violation of the Foreign Corrupt Practices Act.

And even if that were not the case, at a minimum, Pfizer has been exposed as a company going to any length to win the game they're playing, using hired goons to do their shadowy bidding.
