NEW YORK, Nov. 15, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Bronstein, Gewirtz & Grossman, LLC is investigating potential claims on behalf of purchasers of the securities of OSI Systems, Inc. ("OSI Systems" or the "Company") (NASDAQGS: OSIS).  The investigation focuses on whether the Company and its executives violated federal securities laws.

On November 15, 2012 shares of OSI Systems plummeted over $21.40 or 28% to close at $54.89 after a U.S. Lawmaker said the company "may have falsified tests of software intended to stop the machines from recording graphic images of travelers." On November 9th OSI Systems said it received the show-cause letter from the U.S. Transportation Security Administration (TSA).  The letter pertained to a privacy system Rapiscan was developing under contract for the TSA.  The letter alleges that Rapiscan did not disclose issues related to the development process in a timely or complete manner.  Then according to one report a November 13 letter to Transportation Security Administration head John Pistol from Republican Congressman Mike Rogers, the chairman of the House Transportation Security Subcommittee, wrote that his panel had received a tip indicating that OSI Systems had faked a test.  Bloomberg quoted Dan Gordon, a former head of federal procurement, as saying OSI's Rapiscan unit could be hit with fines, prison terms and a ban on receiving government contracts in the future if the allegation is proven.
