TAIPEI -- Pegatron has publicly acknowledged a subsidiary paid certain “brokerage commissions,” but denied knowing if those payments are related to the Apple bribery case.

The Taiwan-based ODM said its subsidiary Kaedar Electronics made certain payments to a third party, the company told the Wall Street Journal. Pegatron did not disclose the amounts.

Last week, an manager in Apple's iPod group was indicted on federal US charges of taking bribes, fraud and money laundering. Paul Shin Devine has pled not guilty tpo the charges.

Pegatron said it did not own Kaedar at the time of the bribes allegedly took place, the Journal reported.
