SOUTH KOREAN multinational conglomerate Samsung has denied a media report that it launched illicit lobbying to help bring the 2018 Winter Olympics to Pyeongchang, South Korea.
The Seoul-based SBS television network reported last week that Samsung tried to use as a lobbyist Papa Massata Diack — the son of Lamine Diack, a disgraced former head of the International Association of Athletics Federations (IAAF).
SBS said the son requested Samsung to sign a $9.5 million (£6.6m) sponsorship for the IAAF's Diamond League circuit from 2010-2012 in return for possibly lobbying some International Olympic Committee (IOC) members to support Pyeongchang's bid.
