Report: Top Olympus exec found dead in park
A top executive from Olympus Corp has been found hanging in a park in India, Reuters and The Times of India are reporting.
Tsutomi Omori, 49, was the head of Olympus's medical equipment business in India.
He was found by a gardener, hanging from a wall that surrounds the park, the Times reports. The park was part of an apartment complex in Gurgaon which is just outside the capital of New Delhi.
The newspaper said two suicide notes were found. One was written to Omori's family.
A number of Olympus executives are facing charges for filing fraudulent information on company accounts in 2007 and 2008.
An internal probe of the company's finances shows that five current and former auditors are responsible for $109 million in costs related to the concealment of $1.7 billion in losses.
Olympus fired CEO Michael Woodford in October after he questioned the company's finances.
Olympus' U.S. headquarters is located in Center Valley, Lehigh County.
