TRAI refers mobile firms to public prosecutor
The National Telecommunications Regulatory Authority in Egypt has referred the four mobile operators to the Public Prosecution due to the presence of mobile lines registered in users' names without their knowledge or possession. This action follows the examination of complaints and the collection of evidence. The investigation aims to determine how user data was obtained and entered into company records, and whether violations occurred during the registration or activation of these lines. It is particularly significant given that the market includes over 126 million mobile lines and 96 million active internet users. Additionally, the authority has launched urgent regulatory measures, including suspending the sale or activation of new lines, and sending alert messages to longstanding subscribers to re-register their lines under their real names. The authority is also working on developing biometric verification mechanisms to combat illegal registration and reduce violations during the registration process. This step comes amid controversy surrounding the "Alamami" service and the discovery of lines registered under names other than their owners, with an emphasis that responsibility for these lines will only be determined after an investigation into the facts and evidence.
