GO’s lawsuit against CITC postponed until Oct. 16

Etihad Atheeb Telecommunication Co.’s (GO) lawsuit against the Communications and Information Technology Commission (CITC) has been postponed until October 16, 2019, the firm said in a statement to Tadawul.

During the hearing on Monday, the company’s representative has requested more time to respond to CITC’s memorandum to the court, the statement said.

There is no relevant financial impact, the statement added.

GO filed a lawsuit in August, seeking to reverse the CITC’s decision in May to reject the telco’s request for a unified license. The license allows operators to offer integrated telecom services including landline.
