Korean firm tied to Trump lawyer got US contract despite corruption probe: report

By Luis Sanchez - 06/18/18 02:11 PM EDT
 

A South Korean firm that hired President Trump’s personal lawyer, Michael Cohen, did not disclose a corruption investigation when it won a contract with the U.S. military last year, The Washington Post reported.

Nine current and former executives at Korean Aerospace Industries (KAI) were indicted last October in Seoul on multiple charges including bribery, embezzlement and defrauding the South Korean government, the Post noted.

Two weeks later, however, the company passed a business integrity review by the U.S Air Force and was awarded a contract worth $48 million, it added.
