The Siemens Case

The magistrate probing the Siemens bribery case is to question two witnesses linked to the scandal on Monday. Nikos Zagorianos is awaiting delivery of a file containing evidence seized by German police from the home of former Siemens official Reinhard Siekaczek. The file is expected to shed light on allegations that the company's Greek branch paid bribes to politicians in Athens to secure contacts. Meanwhile, the magistrate is sorting out the latest details with regards to the forthcoming meeting with his German and Swiss counterparts that will seemingly take place in the Hague, Netherlands at the end of September. Right after the meeting, Mr Zagorianos is expected to travel to Munich to question former Siemens manager Reinhard Siekaczek, as well as other former top Siemens officials. more from daily news »
