Under the title: “Zain” expelled from cellular “paradise”, Elie Ferzli wrote in the newspaper “Al Akhbar”: The state handover of the cellular sector has ended. Yesterday was a crucial moment in reaching this end. There was a real marathon between the company “Zain” on the one hand, and the wheelhouse and the Ministry of Communications and the Case Authority of the Ministry of Justice on the other hand, which resulted in the exit of the company that operated MIC 2 from the sector by force of law and without your approval.

The general meeting concerned about the transfer was scheduled for ten in the morning, but the shareholders woke up to a letter from the board of “Touch” informing them that a meeting was being held at 8 in the morning, during which it was decided to postpone the meeting to a date to be determined later, “based on circumstances that achieve the interest of the company.” The meeting was held, as recorded in the minutes, in the presence of the two members Nadim Khater (also represented by the Chairman of the Board of Directors Badr Al-Kharafi) and Lara Al-Haddad, in addition to the lawyer Colette Hayek, who was assigned to work as a secretary. The justifications for the postponement were three: the lack of transfer of the employees and the problems related to the insurance policy contracts, and the shareholder Wassim Mansour to request an order on a request from the urgent affairs judge in Beirut in order to remove the item approval of accounts from the agenda and oblige the shareholder, Bank Audi for Special Services, not to give an authorization. .

In conclusion, it was clear that the delay was due to Zain’s refusal to hand over the sector without obtaining an authorization. In his letter, he considered that “the issue of approval and authorization is a fundamental consideration and a legitimate legal right.”

The management of the company had realized that the decision of the urgent court would be issued in the interest of Mansour, which required him to hand over the sector without obtaining an authorization. Lawyer Nizar Saghieh presented, on Tuesday, on behalf of Mansour, a petition requesting that a temporary decision be made and an order on a petition to cancel the approval of the accounts for 2017, 2018 and 2019 until the end of September 2020, from the agenda of the general meeting of the company “Mec 2”, otherwise the company Bank Audi services for special services must abstain. Regarding the approval of the disclaimer, since it clearly entails a detriment to the interests of the company and public funds. The plaintiff had previously filed, on August 13, a lawsuit against the company for the vacuum in management and the repeated violations thereof, as well as a criminal complaint against the chairman of the Board of Directors of the company Badr Al-Kharafi and the general manager Emre Gorkan and the two former ministers Muhammad Shukair and Jamal Al-Jarrah for the lease and sale of a building. Touch, and what he included in the settlement resulted in the loss and waste of more than $ 50 million of the company’s revenue.
