rupert stadler is the highest ranking official in the vw group to be detained for questioning.of the whole diesel emissions scandal. vw as a whole have sold and admitted to having sold 11 million vehicles fitted with so—called cheating software, the software that made cars seem a cleaner in testing than they were in reality when sent out on the road. the allegations around rupert stadler who is ceo of audi, one of the brands within the vw group, revolved around an e—mail back in 2015. this e—mail allegedly proves that mr stadler may have known about the cheating software and still let the cars be manufactured and sold. if this is true, that would be fraud and charges could well be made. right now, though, mr stadler is still nowjust being questioned and the rest of the vw group are in crisis talks. on the one hand, they're trying to sort out the leadership in general and trying to figure out where to go next at this next stage of the whole diesel emissions crisis. also, though, to find an interim leader, a backup boss who can step in that while mr stadler is being investigated.
