EU Commission requests info on Uber from former EU digital chief Kroes 

The European Commission has asked former EU digital chief Nellie Kroes for more information on her alleged involvement in lobbying for US ride-hailing app Uber, a Commission spokesperson said.

The International Consortium of Investigative Journalists and multiple media outlets, citing leaked documents, said Uber broke laws, duped police and built a secret lobbying operation targeting prominent policymakers and politicians.

Uber has denied the allegations. Kroes served as a European Commissioner from 2004 to 2014, first as EU antitrust chief and subsequently as digital chief.
