Greek authorities are investigating seven employees of the Swedish telecoms giant Ericsson on suspicion of corruption, the company said Sunday, just days after it confirmed a separate US-led graft probe.
Investigators are probing Greece's purchase of radar technology in 1999 from Ericsson Microwave Systems, a subsidiary that was sold in 2006.
"Recently, seven current and former Ericsson employees have been summoned for questioning by the Greek public prosecutor as part of a preliminary inquiry into allegations of possible corruption," Ericsson said in a statement.
