\tSouth Korea\u2019s Fair Trade Commission (FTC) continued to target Apple over a long-running probe into claims the vendor abused its dominant position in the apps and device markets, accusing the company of obstructing its investigation by preventing access to documents and premises.<\/p>\n

In a statement, the regulator said it had referred Apple’s Korean unit and one of its executives to prosecutors over claims of obstructing an on-site investigation in November 2017 by deliberately preventing or delaying the entry of officials into the company\u2019s premises.<\/p>\n

Apple executive Ryu O-Oh allegedly tried to prevent entry into the site by physical means at the time.<\/p>\n

The authority also imposed a KRW300 million ($264,326) fine over Apple\u2019s refusal to provide information requested in 2016 and 2017 in relation to network disruption, preventing the examination of its practices.<\/p>\n

Apple reportedly agreed a KRW100 billion settlement [1] of the competition probe with the FTC last month.<\/p>\n

The FTC began gathering evidence in the competition case in 2016 before initiating a full probe [2] in 2019.<\/p>\n
