(Reuters) - An executive at a pharmaceutical company in Poland who pleaded guilty in a bribery case involving improper payment, works for Novartis (NOVN.VX), the Swiss drugmaker said on Thursday.
Poland’s anti-corruption bureau said on Tuesday two women had appeared in court in a case in which a health fund official was given a tourist trip worth more than $1,000 (620.67 pounds) in exchange for backing the sale of a particular drug.
Both defendants pleaded guilty as part of a fast-track system that avoids a full trial. Sentencing has not yet been handed down.
