MobiNil, Etisalat Egypt referred to public prosecutor

  • Egypt: Wednesday, February 27 - 2013 at 02:11

Egypt's Competition Protection Agency has referred MobiNil and Etisalat Egypt to the public prosecutor for failing to provide necessary data and statistics about their operations to the agency, Daily News Egypt has reported. Under the country's competition protection laws, all companies and businesses operating within the country are required to submit any data, statistics and documentation to the agency that it requests at any time. The two telecoms operators are being investigated for "coordinated imposition of stamp taxes on pre-paid mobile users in January of 2012." The Agency said that MobiNil and Etisalat had failed to provide the necessary documentation, despite their previous cooperation with the agency, which had previously signed a joint protocol with Etisalat.
