Investigations into Taiwanese Hon Hai Employees Cast Shadow on iPhone Production in China

The Chinese authorities have initiated proceedings against four Taiwanese employees of Hon Hai Precision Industry, Apple's key assembly partner. The accusation: alleged criminal activities, including bribery. This information came from the Taiwanese Mainland Affairs Office in Beijing. The four suspects were arrested by police in the central Chinese city of Zhengzhou, as recently reported by the Taiwan Mainland Affairs Council. Zhengzhou is the significant location where Hon Hai, the flagship of the Foxconn Technology Group, operates the largest iPhone assembly factory in the world. Taiwanese media reported that the arrests of the Hon Hai employees supposedly occurred earlier in the year.
