Bahrain pulls telecom license of opposition leader's firm, Bahrain Industries - Maktoob News

Bahrain has withdrawn the licenses of local telecoms and internet provider 2Connect which was founded by an opposition politician arrested last week in a security crackdown.

Bahrain's Telecommunications Regulatory Authority (TRA) said it had withdrawn all licenses of 2Connect effective March 27 in a statement late on Monday. The telecoms watchdog did not give a reason for its decision.

Bahrain's commercial registry lists Ibrahim Sharif, head of opposition party Waad, as a founder and director of the firm.
