Egypt reports mobile firms over unregistered lines

The National Telecommunications Regulatory Authority in Egypt has referred four mobile companies to the public prosecution after discovering the registration of mobile lines in citizens' names without their knowledge or possession. This action comes after receiving complaints and investigating the incidents, during which inspection procedures were carried out and evidence was collected to protect users' rights and personal data. The authority has issued a set of urgent measures, including halting the activation of new lines, sending messages to existing subscribers in their own names, and requiring the companies to update contracts with the actual owner’s name. Additionally, the agency has instructed to expedite the implementation of biometric verification mechanisms to ensure user identities. It emphasized that violations will be legally pursued, with strict measures against non-compliant companies to ensure the integrity of registration processes and protect customers' rights.
