MOSCOW (Reuters) - Russia's anti-monopoly agency said on Monday that Google Inc must correct its contracts with mobile manufacturers by Nov. 18, Interfax news agency reported. The FAS anti-monopoly body said in September Google had violated the law by pre-installing certain applications on mobile devices and could face penalties totaling up to 15 percent of its 2014 revenue in this part of the Russian market.
