FBI arrests Volkswagen executive on charges of conspiracy to defraud the United States over emissions cheating

Volkswagen’s management board was informed about the “existence, purpose and characteristics” of an emissions cheating device in July 2015, and chose not to disclose it to United States regulators, a court filing on Monday showed.

“In the presentation, VW employees assured VW executive management that U.S. regulators were not aware of the defeat device,” the complaint said.

“Rather than advocate for disclosure of the defeat device to U.S. regulators, VW executive management authorized its continued concealment.”
