CASE ALLEGATIONS: Enochian Biosciences is a pre-clinical stage biotechnology company that purportedly researches and develops pharmaceutical and biological products for the human treatment of HIV, HBV, influenza and coronavirus infections, and cancer. Enochian Biosciences and its top management have credited Serhat Gumrukcu ("Gumrukcu"), Enochian Biosciences' co-founder, as the "inventor" of the technology and science behind Enochian Biosciences' product pipeline. Enochian Biosciences has multiple consulting and licensing agreements with G-Tech Bio, LLC, a California limited liability company ("G-Tech"), and G Health Research Foundation, a not-for-profit entity organized under the laws of California doing business as Seraph Research Institute ("SRI"), both of which are controlled by Gumrukcu.

The Enochian Biosciences class action lawsuit alleges that, throughout the Class Period, defendants made false and misleading statements and failed to disclose that: (i) Gumrukcu was not a licensed doctor and had no verifiable degrees beyond high school; (ii) accordingly, the scientific and technological underpinnings of Enochian Biosciences' product pipeline, purportedly invented by Gumrukcu, were dubious at best; (iii) accordingly, Enochian Biosciences had significantly overstated the commercial prospects for Enochian Biosciences' product pipeline; (iv) Enochian Biosciences' senior leadership knew Gumrukcu had a criminal history that included fraud; (v) accordingly, Enochian Biosciences' reliance on Gumrukcu, and its consulting and licensing agreements with G-Tech and SRI, subjected Enochian Biosciences to a heightened risk of reputational and financial harm, as well as threatened the integrity of Enochian Biosciences' scientific findings; and (vi) as a result, Enochian Biosciences' public statements were materially false and misleading at all relevant times.

On May 25, 2022, the U.S. Department of Justice announced that Gumrukcu had been arrested and charged in a murder-for-hire conspiracy. On this news, Enochian Biosciences' stock price fell by just under 37%, damaging investors.

Then, on June 1, 2022, Hindenburg Research published a report on Enochian Biosciences entitled "Miracle Cures and Murder For Hire: How A Spoon-Bending Turkish Magician Built A $600 Million Nasdaq-Listed Scam Based On A Lifetime Of Lies," which noted that the individual in whose murder Gumrukcu was implicated, Gregory Davis, "was murdered . . . just 19 days before Gumrukcu was scheduled to appear in court to defend himself against felony fraud allegations related to a 2016 deal with Davis" and that "[f]ederal prosecutors argued that the prospective merger deal that eventually resulted in Enochian [Biosciences] going public served as a key motive for the murder." The Hindenburg Research report also stated that "[u]nbeknownst to investors (but known to Enochian [Biosciences'] senior leadership) Gumrukcu's latest arrest for a murder conspiracy is simply the most recent in a string of alleged crimes by Gumrukcu," who "was arrested based on accusations of falsely posing as a doctor" in his native Turkey in 2012 and "[i]n February 2017, Gumrukcu was arrested by authorities after the State of California accused him of a slew of white-collar crimes, including fraud, identity theft, and check kiting – a total of 14 felonies." On this news, Enochian Biosciences' stock price fell by more than 28%.

Finally, on June 27, 2022, The Wall Street Journal published an article about Gumrukcu's participation in the murder-for-hire conspiracy, claiming that Gumrukcu owed Davis over $900,000 after Gumrukcu coaxed Davis into entering into a fraudulent oil deal with him. The article further alleged that FBI agents were suspicious that Gumrukcu "had fabricated his resume and held neither a medical degree nor a doctoral degree." On this news, Enochian Biosciences' stock price fell an additional 21.9%, further damaging investors.
