South Korea's Fair Trade Commission
(FTC) is investigating "some matters" relating to tech giant Apple
Inc (AAPL.O), the head of
the anticompetition body said during a parliamentary hearing, without
disclosing further details.
Speaking at the hearing on
Tuesday, FTC Chairman Jeong Jae-chan declined to comment on the specifics of
the regulator's investigation when asked to do so by a South Korean lawmaker.
Domestic
media reports said earlier this month the FTC was reviewing details of the U.S.
firm's contracts with South Korean mobile telecoms carriers.
Apple didn't immediately respond
to a Reuters request for comment.
