A second Goldman Sachs Group Inc. employee is under investigation for passing illegal tips to Galleon Group LLC co-founder Raj Rajaratnam, a lawyer for former Goldman Sachs Director Rajat Gupta said in court today.

Gupta, the one-time McKinsey & Co. leader who has pleaded not guilty, faces trial May 21 for allegedly leaking tips to Rajaratnam about Goldman Sachs and Procter & Gamble Co., where Gupta was also a director. He faces six counts of securities fraud and one count of conspiracy.
