This petition, they hope, is the beginning of the end of this obstacle, ”the lawsuit states.
The spokesman for the city prosecutor’s office San Francisco here is Kwart told Fox News Digital that after serving their office, they will review the complaint and respond accordingly.
“Mr. Balaji’s death is a tragedy and our hearts come to his family, ”Kwart said.

Just days before he died, Balaji was “optimistic and happy” on a trip to Catalina Island with his friends for his 26th birthday, the complaint filed Jan. 31 says.
The lawsuit describes Balajin as a “child’s savagery of a special interest and talent for coding”. He attended the University of California in Berkeley and, after graduating, was hired as a researcher in Openai.

They further claimed in the lawsuit that investigators did not take their concerns seriously about the status of the Balaji whistle.

“When Mrs. Ramarao informed the representative that her son had been a whistle against Open and appeared in the New York Times regarding his whistle accusations, the representative refused to pursue or request any additional information, ”the lawsuit is alleged.
“Instead, [medical examiner’s office] The representative handed over to Ms. Ramarao Suchir’s apartments and told what she could get her son’s body the next day. The representative also told Ms. Ramarao that she should not be allowed to see such a body and that his face was destroyed when a bullet passed through his eye. “
