China Regulator Says Microsoft Should Not Obstruct Anti-Trust Probe

Beijing: Microsoft Corp should not obstruct an anti-trust investigation by Chinese regulators, the State Administration for Industry and Commerce (SAIC) said on Monday.

The SAIC has questioned Microsoft's lawyer, Deputy General Counsel Mary Snapp, who was at the regulator's offices Monday morning, an SAIC spokesman said.

Last week, the SAIC said it was formally investigating Microsoft for breach of anti-trust rules and had raided four of the U.S. software firm's offices in China.
