Sverdlovsk Region division of Russia’s Federal Antimonopoly Service is going to keep on investigating the case of OAO Uralsvyazinform, which is suspected of violating the existing antimonopoly agreement.

It has been alleged that the telecommunications provider violated Article 10 (part 1, paragraph 1) of the Competition Protection Act in that it stopped rendering traffic access services to ZAO Komstar-Regiony for no good economic or technological reason. Komstar was thus unable to use the local area connection or the local area code resources within the existing geographically determined zones.
