[HIB]Apple worker arrested for kickbacks amounting to over $1million

An Apple worker has been arrested on charges he allegedly took kickbacks of more than $1 million over a period of several years from the company's Asian suppliers in exchange for inside information about the iPhone maker's product lineup. A federal grand jury has indicted Paul Shin Devine, 37, of Sunnyvale, Calif., along with Singapore-based alleged accomplice Andrew Ang, on 23 counts of wire fraud, money laundering, receiving kickbacks, and other charges, according to the San Jose Mercury News, which first reported the story on Friday. Apple has also filed a civil lawsuit against Devine, who was a supply-chain manager at the company. The investigation was led by agents from the Internal Revenue Service and the Federal Bureau of Investigation. An Apple spokesperson said the company is cooperating with the investigators.
