Russian Bombardier employee arrested in Sweden for bribery
http://www.ctvnews.ca/business/swede...bery-1.3319306
Quote:
Prime Minister Justin Trudeau said Canadian companies operating abroad are expected to obey the law after a Bombardier employee in the Swedish offices of the plane and train maker was detained Friday in pretrial custody on suspicion of aggravated bribery.
Evgeny Pavlov, a Russian national living in Stockholm, was one of several Bombardier employees "suspected to have been colluding" with Azerbaijan railway authorities "in order to adapt a contract" to fit Bombardier, Swedish prosecutor Thomas Forsberg said.
Forsberg said Pavlov worked with Bombardier Transportation Sweden AB. On LinkedIn, Pavlov described himself as "Head of sales, Marketing and Country co-ordinator for the north region."

The guy was just putting our tax money to use, after the last bail out by Trudeau.

Sad but true.
I wonder what the bribe was worth. Would be interesting to see that come back to haunt Trudeau.
Is it safe to assume that the bribe was approved by one or more higher ups?

Huge news story indeed. Big company pays bribes to land contracts in corporate ethics hotspots like Azerbaijan. Really? You don't think this goes on in scale in Calgary, Edmonton, Houston every single day?

It seems fair to assume that this Bombardier character who was arrested in Sweden has a counterpart who operates out of Ottawa? Or would the Ottawa branch have more than one person fulfilling such a role?

what is "aggravated bribery" ? sounds kind of ominous, like if you don't accept this money something bad will happen to you or your family.
