India-born Gupta, now 70, disclosed his ordeal in his autobiography, Mind Without Fear, which was published this week, and in an interview with Reuters in New Delhi. ![]() Altogether, he was locked up for 19 months before being released in January 2016. There he joined more violent offenders for the final eight months of his time in jail. And after that, Gupta said, he was transferred to a higher security federal prison on an adjoining site because prison officers decided he wasn’t suitable for a camp-type lockup because of his “poor living skills”. The first time was only for a week but the second time he had to spend seven weeks there. Gupta, who ran the global management consultants McKinsey for nine years and was on the board of investment bank Goldman Sachs, said he was twice placed in a “special housing unit” – a euphemism for solitary confinement - at the Devens Correctional Facility in Ayer, Massachusetts.
