Authorities have searched several German-based sites of European aerospace giant EADS as part of an investigation into alleged corruption, a public prosecutor said on Wednesday. "I can confirm that we have searched several sites in Germany as part of a corruption inquiry," Thomas Steinkraus-Koch, public prosecutor in the southern city of Munich, told AFP, in part confirming Austrian press reports.
He said German legal authorities were looking into a suspected case of corruption during the sale of airplanes to Austria and that "several people" were under suspicion. No arrest warrants had been issued, he added.
