>  the Arabic Network for Human Rights Information (ANHRI) is seeking action
> against Mobinil, Etisalat, Vodafone, LINKdotNET and TE Data ‘for criminal
> liability in participation in harming and killing demonstrators by cutting
> off internet and telecommunication services in Egypt arbitrarily.’ The human
> rights group filed a complaint to Egypt’s prosecutor general last week
> demanding that the minister of communications, chairman of the National
> Telecommunications Regulatory Authority (NTRA) and the CEO’s of the
> country’s wireless operators and ISPs, are put under investigation for the
> communications blackout between 28 January and 2 February. ANHRI says that
> many people lost their lives as a result.
