(AP) — Intel Corp. says a manager who has been charged in a huge hedge fund insider trading case has left the company.

Rajiv Goel had been on paid leave from his job in Intel's treasury department since he was charged in October.

Goel is accused of supplying secret details about Intel's investments to billionaire hedge fund manager Raj Rajaratnam, who allegedly made a profit of $579,000 off the information and paid Goel through a personal brokerage account.

Intel spokesman Chuck Mulloy said Thursday that Goel left Intel sometime before the end of 2009. He declined to offer more details.

Goel's defense lawyer did not immediately return a call from The Associated Press.
