Historic sanction for Maroc Telecom

Maroc Telecom has complied with the decision of the Rabat commercial court. The historic operator had been fined for anti-competitive practices.

Last July, the Casablanca Commercial Court of Appeal upheld Maroc Telecom’s conviction for abuse of a dominant position. The historic operator had 10 days to pay compensation of 6.4 billion dirhams to its competitor Wana Corporate, formerly Inwi, in damages. This has now been done. The payment “was made during the month of July, thus avoiding Maroc Telecom a forced recovery procedure that could have greatly harmed its image.” The historic operator has thus abandoned the idea of ​​appealing the court’s decision before the Court of Cassation, Morocco’s highest court.
