Germany condemns Volkswagen to pay 47 million euros for the 'dieselgate'




The car group did not inform the shareholders of the scandal over the handling of polluting gas emissions



  The Provincial Court of Stuttgart (Germany) today condemned the Volkswagen automobile group, as parent of Porsche, to pay 47 million euros in compensation for not informing shareholders of the scandal on the handling of polluting gas emissions.

Judge Fabian Reuschle said today that at least the then president of the largest vehicle manufacturer in Europe, Martin Winterkorn, "failed" seriously with his obligations in two different processes.

In September 2015 it was revealed that the Volkswagen group had included some illegal systems in some 10 million vehicles worldwide to pretend that their engines were complying with the emission limits, a scandal that cost Winterkorn the presidency and triggered dozens of processes legal against the company.
