Information Technology company Google is locked in a legal battle with the Government over whether to provide electronic mail (email) contents belonging to an alleged hacker.

In a case which will set a precedent on whether the Government push for unfettered access to people’s digital lives is legal or not, the multinational Google Kenya says that it has no relations with the California-based entity.
