KRA detectives are engaged in a landmark court battle with Google over access to an email at the centre of the hacking. Google Kenya holds that it has no access to Google LLC’s servers, services or products which are exclusive to its US-based parent. “Google Kenya Limited and Google LLC are separate limited liability companies and legal entities operating in two separate countries, carrying out different activities. Google Kenya has no capacity to comply with the order as it has no access to Google LLC servers, services and products,” Google Kenya says. The firm moved to court in fear of being found in contempt of a court order that it is unable to obey.
