German prosecutors dropped a probe Monday into Deutsche Telekom's chief executive amid allegations of bribery at the firm's operations in Hungary and the Republic of Macedonia, according to dpa. The investigation of Rene Obermann and two other individuals was brought to an end because there was no evidence of any wrongdoing, said prosecutors in the west German city of Bonn, where Telekom is based. Obermann's home was searched by officials in August along with Telekom's head office and other private dwellings. Telekom welcomed the move to drop the probe saying: "It was an outcome that we have expected." The investigation into a further five suspects is to continue, the prosecutors' office said.
