U.S. Presidential hopeful, Hillary Clinton, has agreed to hand over the private email server that she used as Secretary of State to the FBI.
Her use of private email has generated a lot of criticism as she runs for the president’s position.
Polls show that an increasing number of voters view Mrs Clinton as ‘untrustworthy’, due to the questions surrounding her email use.
The FBI is investigating whether classified information was improperly sent via the server and stored there.
Mrs Clinton initially handed over thousands of pages of emails to the state department, but not the server. Her lawyers will also hand over to the FBI memory sticks which contain the copies of the emails.
Under U.S. federal law, officials’ correspondence is considered to be U.S. government’s property.
