Tearful Tech Mogul Gurbaksh Singh Chahal(Net worth about $300 Millions), 35, originally from Amritsar, Punjab, India, a multi-millionaire, techie arrested and charged with 47 counts for allegedly beating two different girl friends and jailed for probation violation
"The wealth and privilege is not going to shield you from consequences" said a spokesman for the San Francisco district attorney's office. True, unless you have a victim like Al Shah, a follower of Islam, a former state of Wisconsin employee and you are protected by racist Republican Wisconsin AG J.B. VanHollen and Racist Democrat AND Irish MOB Gov. Doyle, Firefighters union mobs, and Sheriff Union, teamster union mobs, Hispanic, Pakistani and Indian convicted criminals and community mobs and Hispanic convicted criminals and other Irish mobs!!!!
Al Shah, (a former state of Wisconsin employee, and an advocate for protecting Palestiniam Muslims' civil rights and whistle blower against police abuse) and his children and his family were subject to a well planned and a systematic torture called "Gaslighting" in the USA for last 17 years by Irish mobs, Racist Democrat Irish Gov. Jim Doyle, and a racist Republican AG JB Van Hollen, Fire Fighters union mobs, Sheriff Union mobs, teamster union mobs, Hispanic convicted criminals, Hindu and Jain Convicted criminals and fraudsters, Pakistani convicted criminals and fraudsters, Indian and Bangladeshi convicted criminals, Patels (especially from Anand and Kheda district Gujarat, India) community felons and fraudsters, some muslims fraudsters, and community mobs and pretty much anyone who want free money, but no legal action from any authority at all for 17 years and instead Pakistani, Indian and Irish mobs made at least $500 millions from this religious hatred based scam for last 17 years by secluding Al and his family and subjected him to solitary confinement in a basement and tortured on his penis using some kind of radiation since 2012 to make Al Shah drop all the civil rights claims and gas lighting claims he and his family have against State and local police, Sheriff union mobs, fire fighter union mobs, State officials related to Scott Walker, US Congressman Paul Ryan, Irish mob Gov. Jim Doyle, teamster and AFL CIO union mobs, and mob Republican AG JB Van Hollen and people associated with/worked for Obama. These crooks are making poisonous propaganda and making everyone fool by stating that this is a political instead of religious hatred based scam and Al has no relation with any political party ever in any country.

Millionaire tech mogul Gurbaksh Chahal faces jail time after losing appeal
Chahal's lawyer, famous OJ defense attorney Robert Sharpiro couldn't save Chahal.
Chahal was born in Tarn Taran Sahib, a city in India’s Punjab state Near Amritsar. At age four he moved with his family to San Jose, California. Chahal dropped out of high school at age sixteen to pursue a career in Internet advertising
After the Wisconsin Sikh temple shooting, Chahal founded the Chahal Foundation. The foundation is designed to create awareness campaigns to stop future hate crimes, provide scholarships, support disaster relief efforts, and improve schools in third-world countries.
His(Gurbaksh) charitable activities are commendable, but do not convince me that a more lenient sentence is appropriate,” Judge Brown said.
Indian American Entrepreneur Gurbaksh Chahal Jailed for Violating Probation on Domestic Violence Conviction
Tearful tech mogul Gurbaksh Chahal jailed for probation violation.
In tears and begging for mercy from a San Francisco judge, disgraced tech mogul Gurbaksh Chahal was led away in handcuffs Friday, ending a years-long legal battle in two domestic violence cases.
Chahal, 35, pleaded with Judge Tracie Brown to undo her decision two years ago to revoke his probation after he was accused of attacking a woman in 2016 at his Rincon Hill penthouse.
At the time of the attack, Chahal was on probation for beating another woman in the same penthouse a year earlier.
“The truth is, I’m not a bad person,” Chahal said while crying before being led away. “I’m begging you to have mercy on me, your honor, please.”
The beating of his girl friend was captured on Chahal's personal security cameras, but a judge found police illegally seized the footage and suppressed the footage and suppressed the evidence to protect Chahal.
Gurbaksh Chahal net worth: Gurbaksh Chahal is an award winning Entrepreneur and author who has a net worth of $200 million. Gurbaksh Chahal earned his net worth through various business ventures, TV appearances and writing. He was born in Tarn Taran Sahib, Punjab, India and began his journey in business ventures in 1998, at the age of 16. He is currently the founder, Chairman, and CEO of RadiumOne which is expected to raise $1 million in an IPO. By all accounts, Chahal appears to be a perfect tech entrepreneur. His first startup sold for $40 million to ValueClick, and his next, BlueLithium, was acquired by Yahoo for $300 million. In the summer of 2013, he was charged with 45 felonies and 2 misdemeanors for beating his girlfriend. Security cameras allegedly caught Chahal hitting Juliet Kakish 117 times over a half-hour period in his San Francisco apartment. The complaint against Chahal accused him of hitting Kakish repeatedly in the head, assaulting her with a pillow, dragging her from the bed to the floor, covering her mouth to obstruct her breathing, and hitting her in the lower body approximately 15 times while threatening to kill her. He was arrested but was able to post the $1 million bail and was released shortly thereafter.
Khraibut painted Chahal as "brogrammer" who subsisted on "a toxic cocktail of prescription drugs, party drugs, alcohol and sycophants," referred to woman as "b----" and "h--" when texting male colleagues, and called himself the "Indian Brad Pitt," according to the lawsuit.
Tech Millionaire Who Beat Girlfriend 117 Times Ducks Jail Despite Damning Video
Home security footage reportedly showed Chahal beating and kicking his girlfriend 117 times during the 30-minute attack. Prosecutors said Chahal lashed out at his girlfriend after learning that she had cheated on him during a trip to Las Vegas, according to court documents.
Before his legal troubles, Chahal was a notorious San Francisco playboy who drove exotic sports cars, kept a gaudy penthouse apartment and often traveled with his entourage to places like the Bellagio in Las Vegas.

His(Gurbaksh) charitable activities are commendable, but do not convince me that a more lenient sentence is appropriate,” Judge Brown said.
Gurbaksh Chahal wanted to be a role model for the sales team at his digital advertising startup and show them how to close a deal. But the co-founder and chief executive officer of Gravity4 Inc. knew he couldn’t be effective as the face of the business.
In 2014, he had been removed from the last company he started following a fight with his girlfriend a year earlier, in which he hit and kicked her 117 times. The brutal ordeal, which had been caught on security-camera footage, resulted in probation for Chahal and shattered his reputation. Last year, Chahal came up with a solution: He created an alter ego named Christian Gray, according to a half dozen people familiar with the situation. The character, who shares a very similar name with one from 50 Shades of Grey, has his own LinkedIn page featuring a head shot of Josh Dallas, an actor who appears on the ABC fairytale drama Once Upon a Time. Chahal would e-mail marketing professionals as Gray, and when he hooked a potential customer, the CEO would berate staff for being outsold by a fake person, said the people, who asked not to be named for fear of retribution. Two people said Chahal had at times used Gray’s sales leads as an excuse to fire workers. But Gray’s career didn’t last long. While still on probation from his previous domestic-violence conviction, Chahal kicked another girlfriend in late 2014 and threatened to report her to immigration services, according to a police report that surfaced last year. While there wasn’t enough evidence to file criminal charges in that incident, it led to a judge revoking his probation last month, prompting Chahal to hand over the CEO role to his sister. Gravity4 and an attorney for Chahal didn’t respond to multiple requests for comment. A California district judge sentenced Chahal on Friday to a year in a county jail for violating his probation, pending an appeal, which his attorney said he plans to do.
Chahal’s self-destruction—and the former colleagues, shareholders, customers, and women left in the rubble—is an extreme case, but it demonstrates a more common risk in Silicon Valley of entrepreneurs who amass too much power. Chahal’s earlier achievements enabled him to run his businesses unchecked and use vague promises of startup riches to recruit talent. “He has a brilliant mind and a very flawed personality,” said Sam Singer, a crisis communications consultant who worked for Chahal in 2014. “He has become a poster child for everything the public thinks is wrong with Silicon Valley: wealth that comes too fast and too easily, arrogant behavior, the belief that the rules don’t apply to them and they are somehow above the law.” Success as revenge Before the 34-year-old crumbled, Chahal was a model of young and flashy entrepreneurial success. As a fresh multimillionaire in 2008, he appeared on the Oprah Winfrey Show, where he recounted selling his first company at age 18 for $40 million and his second at 23 for $300 million, landing him a leadership role at Yahoo! During the interview, Chahal discussed growing up as a young Sikh child in San Jose, where bullies at school used to tease him about wearing a turban and made him cry. (He’s since stopped wearing it.) “Well, this is a wonderful moment, because the best revenge is doing well,” Winfrey said.
At the time, Chahal agreed, but his actions over the next several years seemed to reflect a different mantra. He was charged with 47 felonies stemming from the 2013 attack and pled guilty to lesser a charge after the video was ruled inadmissible. He also railed against the victim by writing a since-deleted blog post that said she was having unprotected sex with other people for money. He was still furious about getting booted from RadiumOne Inc., the previous startup he founded and nearly took public. Chahal used his own money to form a new ad-tech startup in 2014 and tried to buy his old company. RadiumOne scoffed at the proposal from Chahal’s Gravity4, telling the technology website Recode that the offer “fails to reflect the value that has been built in the company.” Gravity4 could have been Chahal’s next revenge-by-success story. The goal was to buy up disparate ad-tech companies and weave them together to create a software platform that serves an advertiser’s every need. It hoped to let customers create campaigns and distribute them seamlessly to social networks, e-mail, and smartphones. The project was ambitious, and advertisers said it would be a very valuable product. Fall of the empire From a snow-white penthouse office overlooking San Francisco Bay, Chahal recruited employees by telling them—and his Twitter followers—that the company was worth $1 billion and in many cases, by promising shares that would make them rich when the company went public. Gravity4 soon began snapping up ad-tech startups, at least 15 of them, according to one of the company’s press releases. But things quickly fell apart. Chahal had picked Dan Grigorovici to be his co-founder and tasked him with building the technology that tied everything together. But the platform never worked, said six people familiar with the situation. Gravity4 failed to connect services from each company it acquired, the people said. Last year, Gravity4 was hit by two civil lawsuits from former employees, with allegations including gender discrimination, harassment, and wrongful termination. In a response, the defendants said a former employee was trying to publicize negative claims to get money he wasn’t owed and that the suit violated a nondisclosure agreement. One of the lawsuits said Grigorovici had stolen proprietary information from his former employer, ad-tech company Lotame, to build Gravity4. Grigorovici didn’t respond to requests for comment. Gravity4 kept the acquisition spree going, targeting struggling ad-tech startups that could be picked up on the cheap, primarily in stock transactions, people familiar with the situation said. Chahal also made multiple bids of as much as $350 million to buy Rocket Fuel Inc., a publicly traded programmatic advertising company. Monte Zweben, Rocket Fuel’s then interim CEO, described the offer in a September press release and letter to Chahal as “not credible.” People familiar with Gravity4’s acquisition offers said the company drastically over-inflated its own valuation, which would be difficult to refute without an independent audit. As the controlling shareholder, Chahal wasn’t required to seek a fair-market-value assessment by an outside firm, said Steve Allan, head of analytics for Silicon Valley Bank. Startups took the deal because the alternative typically was to shut down.
Chahal, who began walking around the office periodically in a black t-shirt with gold letters that read “BOSS,” chewed out employees for not hitting results and complained about spending $1 million of his own money each month to keep the company running, said people familiar with the events. He sent expletive-laced e-mails to employees, including one in January seen by Bloomberg in which he wrote, “Earn your f---ing salary vs. leeching off my coat tails” and warned that if anyone shared the message, he “can’t wait to fire and sue your ass off--.”
The line between personal and professional projects began to blur for Chahal. He produced a hip-hop record called The Legacy, which features a smoky set of angel wings on the cover with the tagline, “Hope. Love. Destiny.” The Gravity4 holiday party, where employees from recently acquired companies gathered in the top-floor office to meet their new CEO, unexpectedly turned out to be an album release party, said people familiar with the event.
Under pressure from his second alleged domestic-assault incident, Chahal used ad credits from the company’s Facebook Inc. account this year to promote a page he created on the social network calling San Francisco District Attorney George Gascón a racist, two people familiar with the situation said. The campaign prevented Gravity4 from serving some ads it had previously sold to clients for display on Facebook, they said. As it became clear to many employees that Gravity4’s underlying technology wouldn’t come together, workers began to quit—or were dismissed without warning, the people said. Grigorovici left the company in February, and dozens of other employees followed him out the door. Some staff who were promised company shares never received stock certificates, said three people familiar with the situation. The shrinking company moved out of its fancy digs into a co-working space. Kamal Kaur took the reins last month after her brother was found to be in violation of his probation. Chahal was ordered to turn in his passports. Gravity4’s U.S. business, which had a staff of about 50 a year ago, now has just a few, said people familiar with the situation. Most of what remains of the company, according to its website, is its overseas acquisitions in Europe, Asia, and Latin America. Chahal still retains a sort of twisted admiration from some followers. People who worked with him said he could have easily taken his millions and moved on after RadiumOne and his criminal conviction. Instead, he chose to try again and pursue his vision. Such dedication is, in some ways, what Silicon Valley celebrates.
