Norwegian army in quarrel with Siemens

The Norwegian military has blacklisted Siemens for overcharging it by 4,5 million euros between 2000 and 2005, reports the BBC. Siemens Norway has refunded the money and has also decided to replace some of its top management. It will not, however, continue to do business with Norwegian military until an investigation into corruption is brought to an end. The police is in process of investigating whether military personnel in Norway accepted bribes form Siemens.
