German prosecutors have announced that 
they opened a criminal investigation into Volkswagen’s former chief 
executive Martin Winterkorn over a worldwide pollution cheating scandal.The world’s top-selling carmaker admitted that it had rigged diesel emissions to pass US tests during his tenure.Winterkorn resigned in the midst of 
global outrage after Volkswagen revealed that 11 million of its diesel 
vehicles are equipped with devices that fool official pollution tests.The investigation will concentrate on 
the suspicion of fraud committed through the sale of vehicles with 
manipulated emissions data and aims to determine who was responsible for
 it, prosecutors in Braunschweig said in a statement.“The investigation will focus on the 
allegation of fraud by selling vehicles with manipulated emission 
values,” the statement said.“The aim of the investigation is to clarify the chain of responsibility,” it added.In
 the German system, anyone can file a criminal complaint with 
prosecutors, who are then obliged to examine it and decide whether there
 is enough evidence to open a formal investigation.</div>
