Und wieder ABB Schlagzeile im Zusammenhang mit dem Formel E Rennen hier in Cape Town.
Scheint in der Schweiz kein Thema zu sein.
Formula E sponsor ABB admitted to paying bribes to Eskom (Abo)

- The ABB FIA Formula E World Championship race taking place in Cape Town is set to contribute billions of rands to the local economy and destination marketing.
- However, its sponsor, the Swiss engineering group ABB, has admitted to paying bribes to be granted work at Eskom's Kusile power station.
- It is ironic that in a time of load shedding, a company implicated in Eskom corruption is sponsoring an electric vehicle race in SA, an economist says.

Eskom ist die stattliche Elektrizitätsgesellschaft

Und wieder eine SA Schlagzeile
Kusile mess: Eskom subcontractors, ex-ABB employees slapped with R580m restraint order

Ex-ABB employees Mohammed Mooidheen and Vernon Pillay, their wives Raeesa Mooidheen and Aradhna Pillay, and Eskom subcontractors Impulse International and Indiwize Construction are facing charges of corruption, money laundering, fraud and forgery.

The NPA has accused ABB SA, the local subsidiary of the Zurich-headquartered multinational, of conspiring with Impulse to fix inflated contract prices for work at the troubled Kusile power

NPA = National Prosecution Authority
"Zurich-headquartered": Ich dachte Hauütquartier sei Baden.
Und dies ?

The engineering group entered into a $315 million (R5.5 billion) plea with US Department of Justice in December, where it acknowledged receiving confidential, internal Eskom information to help it win tenders. A previously announced settlement with Eskom forms part of the $315 million.

Nachtrag: Gegoogelt, Hauptquartier ist Oerlikon. Vermutlich bei ehemals MFO.
