August 03, 2015 13:49

India-born former Goldman Sachs director Rajat Gupta has accepted his two-year imprisonment on insider trading charges as his "destiny" while spending a low- profile life at a Massachusetts prison where he occasionally runs into his friend and hedge fund founder Raj Rajaratnam.

Gupta, 66, currently serving two years at the Federal Medical Center Devens in northwest of Boston on insider trading charges, washed tables at the facility, played handball and racquetball and bridge, according to an account in the New York Times. Gupta and Rajaratnam are under the same roof at the prison with 1,000 other inmates.
