Algerian gendarmes carried out a successful operation against a pirate pay-TV network, arresting three people in the town of Ghardaïa, 600 km south of Algiers. During the operation, illegal terrestrial television (TNT) equipment and a large number of "sensitive" electronic devices, including beIN Sports set-top boxes, were seized .

The representatives of the gendarmes received paid platform decoders (beIN Sports), as well as encoders and equipment used for terrestrial transmission, which was used for the pirate DVB-T platform. During the operation, 51 code cards, 20 decoders, 9 terrestrial cards and 3 Atlas digital decoders were recovered. The accused are accused of creating a " terrestrial system for broadcasting programs encoded with the use of sensitive devices of foreign production and smuggling".

The detainees were brought to the Metlily Court, which ordered two people to be placed under judicial supervision - a third person was paroled. It should be noted that the civil party in this case is TéléDiffusion d'Algérie (TDA) - Algerian national company responsible for managing Algerian terrestrial transmitters and broadcasting radio and television stations in Algeria.

Télédiffusion d'Algérie is an active member of the EBU. Audiovisual law in Algeria in Art. 107 is clear and brutal: such acts are punishable by a fine of between 2 million dinars (12,000 euros) and 10 million dinars (62,000 euros) for any natural or legal person operating without authorization for audiovisual communications services. The competent Algerian court will normally order the confiscation of the equipment and installations used to provide a given audiovisual communication service.
