Egypt reports mobile companies to Prosecutor
Egypt has announced that all mobile phone companies have been referred to the public prosecution after uncovering violations related to the registration of lines in citizens' names without their knowledge or possession, exposing them to being registered unlawfully without permission. This came after complaints from users about lines registered in their names without clear authorization. The authority confirmed that urgent procedures are being organized to control line registrations and prevent the recurrence of these violations, most notably suspending the sale or activation of new lines and notifying existing holders to sign contracts under their true names. The measures also include linking digital systems and government services to phone numbers to ensure security, amid increasing cases of citizens discovering lines registered in their names without deliberate oversight. Telecommunications companies have not yet issued an official statement regarding the decision.
