The Communications Authority of Kenya (CA) has been given 60 days to respond to concerns that Safaricom and Telkom Kenya have denied interconnection services to a local firm that offers low-priced call roaming services.

The High Court was responding to a petition in which Geonet, a telecoms firm that offers technological services that avoid high roaming charges, had accused CA of promoting anticompetitive behaviour by failing to intervene in its dispute with the two telcos.
