From Bloomberg News

U.S. prosecutors said they will seek a new indictment against former Enron Corp. Chief Financial Officer Andrew Fastow, a signal the government may add charges or defendants in the case against the alleged mastermind of the fraud that led to the energy trader’s collapse.

Fastow pleaded innocent Nov. 6 to 78 counts of fraud, money laundering and other charges. Prosecutors have told him they plan to ask a grand jury for a second indictment, the Justice Department’s Enron Task Force said in a court filing.

John Keker, an attorney for Fastow, didn’t return a message left at his San Francisco office.
