New Delhi: Life for India-born former Goldman Sachs director Rajat Gupta who is currently serving his prison term in a federal prison in Massachusetts after being convicted in an insider trading case, is no longer hunky-dory.

Gupta, currently serving two years at the Federal Medical Center Devens in northwest of Boston, washed dishes at the prison cafeteria briefly according to an account in the New York Times.

The NYT said that Gupta washed tables at the facility, played handball and racquetball and bridge.

Gupta is spending a low- profile life in the prison where he occasionally runs into his friend and hedge fund founder Raj Rajaratnam. Both of them are under the same roof at the prison with 1,000 other inmates.

Gupta occasionally runs into his one time friend-turned foe Rajaratnam, also serving an 11-year prison term on insider trading charges in the same facility, the report said.

The report quoted a former inmate David E Morgan, who served about a year and half on charges elated to insurance fraud, as saying that he had met Gupta and Rajaratnam at Devens.
