Telkom wins landmark infrastructure dispute
The Western Cape High Court has ruled in favour of Telkom in a case relating to the unlawful accessing of its infrastructure. An ITWeb report says Telkom brought an urgent application before the court following ‘Vodacom's unlawful use of its infrastructure in the Dennegeur residential estate’.
Telkom said its concern was that Vodacom unlawfully accessed its duct infrastructure. Telkom subsequently requested the court to order Vodacom to remove its cabling from its ducts. ‘Telkom is pleased that the court ruled in our favour and agreed that our infrastructure may not be accessed without following prescribed regulatory process,’ it said. The court also ordered Vodacom to pay costs.
