An executive board member of the German technology company Siemens has been arrested as part of a bribery 1 investigation 2. Johannes Feldmayer is accused of paying €34 million to Wilhelm Schelsky, the former head of the AUB trade union who is now in jail for tax evasion 3. Siemens has no record of Schelsky performing any services for them, but AUB was known to be much friendlier about Siemens corporate 4 decisions than other German trade unions such as IG Metall, the German Metalworkers Union. In a separate investigation, Munich prosecutors 5 are looking into the disappearance 6 of €200 million from accounts in Siemens' telecommunications business, because the investigators 7 feel that the money may have been used as bribes 8 to win contracts outside of Germany.
