A Munich court has handed former Audi CEO Rupert Stadler a suspended jail sentence of one year and nine months for fraud in the 2015 diesel emissions scandal that rocked Volkswagen Group
The ex-boss was also fined €1.1 million , which will go to the German government and charities, the court said in a ruling Tuesday. Stadler is the first Volkswagen\n \n board member to be sentenced in the affair, some four years after German prosecutors laid fraud charges against the executive. He entered a plea bargain with the court, confessing to his crimes in order to avoid spending time in jail. CNN has contacted Audi\n \n and its parent company Volkswagen for comment.
Hatz was fined €400,000 and Pamio was fined €50,000 . Volkswagen admitted in 2015 that it had rigged diesel engines to cheat on emissions tests by using software that made its cars appear less polluting than they were. The scandal set off years of investigations, fines and settlements that have cost the carmaker at least $39 billion. Stadler, who had worked for Volkswagen since 1990, was arrested in June 2018 in connection with the diesel scandal.
