    • Abstract:
      Former Volkswagen CEO Martin Winterkorn has appeared in a German court to defend himself against fraud charges related to the diesel emissions scandal that rocked the company in 2015. Winterkorn is accused of allowing VW vehicles to be equipped with emissions-cheating technology. The trial is expected to last 12 months. Winterkorn's charges were separated from four other managers due to health issues, and the case against the other four has been ongoing since 2021. Winterkorn denies the allegations and his lawyer expressed confidence in rebutting them. [Extracted from the article]
