Investors are suing pharmaceutical company Theranos and its founder Elizabeth Holmes, alleging fraudulent claims, Reuters reported on Monday. The investors accuse Theranos of making misleading claims about its technology, a blood-sampling product that has been shown not to perform as the company claimed. Theranos announced in October that it would be shutting all its blood-testing facilities.

Theranos is currently under criminal investigation by the SEC.
