"I hope that the case put on this, rather than temporarily come to a paragraph. ”

United States time, 1 April, the Federal Court in Washington, d.c., Daimler North America company PR hanjian construction (HanTjan) hurried out of 18, the Court, in response to a reporter on the Daimler corporate bribery event has made the question, answer above.

United States Government charges against Daimler company overseas bribery case, Daimler agreed to pay fines of $ 1.85 million to the United States Government, became a no suspense of reconciliation. Two United States Justice Department overseas bribery investigation counsel against a Daimler company consultants plus three lawyers throughout the war, only lasted 50 minutes. The parties did not argue that the judge had announced the results of the case, the journalists took a Daimler company paid PR is issued on the spot.

Daimler's current total of 4 companies are sued, respectively Daimler Germany Corporation and including Daimler China company, the other three branches. United States Government sued on the grounds that, Daimler company from 1998 to 2008 to between China's 22 national government officials, bribery, which in exchange for tens of millions of dollars worth of millions of dollars in contracts.

And reconciliation as a result, Daimler's Germany export and Trade Finance Branch and Russia branch quickly plead guilty, the Daimler group and Daimler China companies won forgiveness, postponed for two years before: If the two companies two years no longer violating the foreign corrupt practices Act, the Government will revoke their judicial proceedings.

This avoids determining results, with United States law experts pointed out that it reflects Western business interests prevail justice above the embarrassing situation, commercial interests, is the challenge of justice.

China branch "protected"

The United States Department of Justice on the Daimler China company sued grounds, and the other two Daimler subsidiary reasons there is no different, are violating the foreign corrupt practices Act provisions against bribery in. But Daimler export and Trade Finance Branch and Russia branch recognizes that bribery offences were sentenced to 2910 m and a fine of $ 2730, and ultimate success of Chinese branch has had pleaded guilty and to avoid paying a fine.

The reason, Lihua, said: Daimler and the Ministry of Justice consultation, the result is that companies do not have to be accused of bribery, therefore decided to postpone the trial of two years. In other words, if Daimler Chinese companies in the next two years without violating the foreign corrupt practices Act, the parties agree that the case, the accused will be revoked.

Although in the next two years, Daimler China companies must adhere to the self audit of the implementation of the law, and to report regularly to the trial court, but that price compared to the other two subsidiaries of the same offence, is a world of difference.

The importance of the Chinese Auto market, perhaps the Daimler is committed to protecting the root cause of the Chinese company. Daimler is the world's major automotive companies, but the profit decline in recent years, China is the world's small car sales growth of powers, it is expected that the 2010 Daimler China business will increase at least 15%.
