Weird is how many of the bad employers are Indians themselves (or I think so, given they're names):

Krishnan Kumar, from Softech

Malini Sridhar, from Compsys Technologies (found through http://appext20.dos.ny.gov/ )

Tata Consultancy Services Ltd, part of India’s Tata group

Even the lawyers suing these employees :

> Past president of the South Asian Bar Association of Georgia, attorney Roy Banerjee has a penchant for wearing bow ties and representing body shops. He has prevailed in many cases against Indian immigrant programmers, winning judgments or settlements from some, while others fled back to India.

Why would it surprise you, given that they are the ones having local knowledge on both sides of the trade?

That's hardly surprising. Those who sold Africans into slavery were often other Africans.

"It takes a certain kind of person" is what they say, isn't it? That kind of person exists in all cultures/countries.
