Japanese Finance Minister Taro Aso declined to comment on an independent probe concluding that the trade ministry had colluded with Toshiba executives to pressure stockholders to fall in line with management’s plans.
“I won’t comment on reports concerning individual companies,” Aso told reporters after a cabinet meeting on Friday.
The report from independent investigators says Toshiba’s management asked the trade and industry ministry to help counter activist overseas stock owners at its annual general meeting last July.
