Google has accused EU antitrust watchdogs of blundering their way through a probe that culminated in a record €4.3-billion (R84-billion) fine for allegedly abusing the market power of its Android mobile ecosystem.

The company is making its case at the European Court of Justice, the bloc’s highest court, on Tuesday after the regulator ruled that Google had unfairly used its dominance to make sure traffic on Android devices went to its search engine.
