Ericsson released a statement that after an internal investigation, saying they may have funded Isis and are now being investigated by the US government again for corruption.
Is this why he was fired? Literally funding te------ts?
The company claims the criminal activity, which spanned six countries, ended in the first quarter of 2017 and it fired 50 people in 2018 following an internal investigation. Current Verizon CEO Hans Vestberg led Ericsson between 2010 and mid-2016 — or six months prior to when these activities were alleged to have stopped — when he abruptly resigned following several underperforming quarters. Vestberg was at Ericsson for 19 years, and replaced Carl-Henric Svanberg, who left Ericsson to become chairman at BP.
The company disclosed in February that an internal investigation had found it may have made payments to the Islamic State militant group in Iraq - misconduct it said "started at least back in 2011".
