[kictanet] Your phone landing in the wrong hands could get you six months in jail

[Grace Githaiga]

    Thanks Grace.

Two questions:

1. How do hawkers get these sim cards that they sell on the streets
and in traffic?

2. Can guidelines serve as law under which people can be prosecuted?


Best regards


Githaiga, Grace

" The Communications Authority of Kenya (CA) Friday issued the stern
warning, saying every Kenyan is responsible for any use of their
mobile number in making calls, sending and receiving text messages as
well as any financial transactions.



The regulator says all Kenyans must only use registered SIM cards to
transact business as they may be culpable in the event that their
number is used in the commission of a crime."
