   The Satyam Computer Services fraud rocked the Andhra Pradesh assembly Monday with Leader of Opposition N. Chandrababu Naidu alleging that IT firm's former chairman B. Ramalinga Raju financed the business of Chief Minister Y S Rajasekhara Reddy's (YSR) son.
   
   The Telugu Desam Party (TDP) president claimed that 14 companies run by the chief minister's family were used for money laundering by Raju. "He (Raju) pumped money into your companies," he told YSR.
   
   Naidu accused the chief minister's son, Y S Jaganmohan Reddy, of violating rules including foreign direct investment rules, Foreign Exchange Regulations Act, Securities and Exchange Board of India (SEBI) and registrar of companies rules.
   
   The former chief minister claimed these companies received Rs.6 billion (Rs.600 crore) from various sources and the same money was used to publish Telugu daily 'Sakshi' and launch 'Indira' television channel.
   
   Naidu said the massive fraud has brought shame to the state and accused the Congress government of shielding the guilty.
