Munich prosecutors say Audi CEO arrested on risk he may suppress evidence

Reuters

FRANKFURT (Reuters) - Munich prosecutors said that Audi Chief Executive Rupert Stadler was arrested on Monday because investigators saw the risk that he might seek to suppress evidence in connection with a diesel emissions probe.

"The suspect has been seen by a judge, who has ordered him to be remanded in custody," the prosecutors' office said in a statement.

The prosecutors' office last week widened its emissions cheating probe into Volkswagen's <VOWG_p.DE> luxury brand Audi to include Stadler among the suspects accused of fraud and false advertising.
