Moroccan court orders Maroc Telecom to pay nearly 6.4 billion dirhams to competitor Wana

The Commercial Court in Rabat has ruled in favor of Wana regarding the lawsuit against Maroc Telecom, citing unfair competition and dominance of the Moroccan market. The court ordered Maroc Telecom to pay 6.4 billion dirhams in compensation to its competitor.

Wana had previously filed the lawsuit in December 2021, seeking 6.8 billion dirhams in damages.

Notably, earlier in February 2020, the National Telecommunications Regulatory Agency had already fined Maroc Telecom 3.3 billion dirhams for engaging in anti-competitive practices.
