Diesel process: Ex-VW boss Martin Winterkorn claims to have only found out about the problems late and incompletely. "If I had been given a complete picture, I would not have hesitated to tackle the events directly and clarify them," he said.
Criminal proceedings are pending in Braunschweig against former boss WinterkORN himself due to emissions manipulation. The accusation here is commercial fraud. In addition, criminal proceedings on suspicion of market manipulation have been reopened. “I think these allegations are inaccurate,” said Winterkorns as a witness before the Higher Regional Court.
