MultiChoice Kenya, the owners of pay-tv operator DStv, is at the end of the month expected to know whether it will be forced to re-sell exclusive English Premier League (EPL) rights to rivals, the competitions regulator said yesterday.The Competition Authority of Kenya (CAK) said its investigations into the local pay-TV market had found that MultiChoice has unfair monopoly of football content, skewing competition in its favour and forcing some players to exit Kenya.The regulator says in its latest annual report that the CAK has made its preliminary findings known to the pay-TV firm and that the final verdict will be out by end of the month.“We have engaged MultiChoice on several occasions on the issues we found and issued them with our proposed ruling,” CAK director-general Wang’ombe Kariuki said, adding that there has been a lot of back on forth on the issue.“MultiChoice is fully co-operating with CAK as we have always done with all authorities. We are awaiting the report and cannot comment further until then,” said MultiChoice in a statement.
