New Delhi, September 23
Google on Thursday said it has moved the Delhi High Court against the leak of antitrust body CCI’s confidential report pertaining to the investigation against the tech giant.
Google said it aims to prevent any further unlawful disclosures of confidential findings by the investigative arm of Competition Commission of India (CCI).The tech giant noted that it has “not yet received or reviewed this confidential report”.
“Google filed a writ petition in the Delhi HC seeking redress in this matter, specifically protesting against the breach of confidence which impairs Google’s ability to defend itself and harms Google and its partners,” it added.
Last week, reports had stated that CCI’s investigation arm, the Director General (DG), has found that Google indulged in unfair business practices in relation to Android.
After prima facie finding alleged violation of competition norms, CCI — in early 2019 — had ordered a detailed probe against Google in this regard. — PTI
