A baby monitoring device was found under the couch of Porsche boss, Wendelin Wiedeking’s, hotel room. It’s believed that the spies, believed to be either VW or the State of Lower Saxony, the two largest shareholders of VW, were trying to get info on Porsche’s plans regarding their pending controling acquisition of VW. The hotel records rule out the possibility that a family had stayed in the room prior to Wiedeking’s stay. Porsche also said that other company officials have been spied upon, including works council head, Uwe Hueck.
You’d think they’d use stealthier devices.

The receiver would have needed to be within a few doors distance, and fairly easy to expose. My vote is that it was truly left behind by a family, but now I’ve got a few evil ideas hatching… muwhahaha.
