General Telecommunications Authority

The General Telecommunications Authority was the telecommunications regulator of the Gaddafi government in Libya.[1] It was based in Tripoli, and headed by Muhammad Gaddafi, the oldest son of the ruler.[2][3]

As of April 2011, it has been reported to have lost de facto control of the telecommunications infrastructure in the rebel-controlled areas of Libya.[1][2]
