A day after Ramalinga Raju announced his departure from Satyam Computer after admitting to the country's biggest ever corporate fraud, a website by his name, launched supposedly by his fans last week, today vanished into oblivion.
The website, www.Ramalingaraju.Com, was launched with much fanfare last week by some people claiming to be Raju's well-wishers, who blamed media for giving him bad publicity.
Attempts to reach the site, which was available till yesterday, was today displayed "page not available" or "webpage cannot be found" error messages.
With a tag line of "Satyameva Jayate" (truth shall win), the website was soliciting public support for Raju. Various postings on the website had said Raju was a hero for them.
