The European Commission is set to impose a fine of approximately €500 million (N804.5 Million) on Apple for purported breaches of EU competition law, as reported by the Financial Times on Sunday.

Citing undisclosed sources familiar with the situation, the publication revealed Brussels’ intentions. The fine, expected to be announced early next month as confirmed by News Central, follows accusations from last year.
