It is seeking €1m ($1.3m) in damages from its ex-chairman and looks set make a similar claim against its former chief executive over their roles in a year-old scandal involving allegations of snooping at the telecoms group.
Deutsche Telekom’s executive board sent a letter to Klaus Zumwinkel outlining the group’s claim to “around €1m” in damages for allegedly failing to comply with his responsibilities when he was chairman, a person close to the matter said.
This person also said Deutsche Telekom’s supervisory board was preparing a similar demand at the same level that could “soon” be presented to Kai-Uwe Ricke, chief executive when alleged spying on staff took place in 2005 and 2006.
Both Mr Zumwinkel and Mr Ricke have in the past denied any wrongdoing.
