Dubbed 'Project 42', whispers of this initiative have been circulating the tech corridors.

Speculations suggest it involves constructing a glass edifice, potentially a residence for Tesla's CEO, Elon Musk.

Federal prosecutors are probing whether Tesla's funds were used for Musk's personal gains.

The SEC mandates that significant transactions where an executive has a stake must be disclosed.

Omead Afshar, a key executive at Tesla's Texas factory, is central to this scrutiny.

Was the special glass for 'Project 42' ever delivered?

Tesla's significant foray into Texas saw the inauguration of its Austin gigafactory in 2022.
