In short:

Six major ice cream companies in Japan are under suspicion of colluding to hike their prices.

The Japan Fair Trade Commission is investigating the allegations against frozen dessert brands Meiji, Ezaki Glico, Morinaga Milk Industry Co, Lotte Co, Morinaga & Co, and Akagi Nyugyo Co.

What's next?

If the companies did violate laws, they will be fined and ordered to improve their business practices.
