TOKYO -- Toshiba will hold an emergency board meeting on Sunday to address a commissioned report that concluded that the company's annual shareholders meeting last year was "not fairly managed."

An independent investigation, conducted by three lawyers, looked into alleged voting irregularities. Thursday's report found that the Japanese conglomerate had closely worked with the Ministry of Economy, Trade and Industry to pressure activist shareholders.
