Napeto, prisutna policija, izbio i požar: Grad Niš nastavlja da uklanja kablove, pa i stubove operatora Jotel koji emituje N1 i Novu S
Direktor Jotela Dragan Ilić kazao je da se danas, 4. februara, nastavilo uklanjanje optičkih kablova ovog provajdera sa stubova javne rasvete u Nišu i okolini.

TL;DR
- Jotel reports that its fiber optic cables are being removed from public lighting poles in Niš and surrounding areas by Parking servis and JKP Mediana.
- The City Construction Directorate has issued orders for the removal of Jotel's cables and even wooden poles, citing illegal occupation of public green spaces.
- Jotel's director alleges this is illegal pressure and an attempt to destroy their property, suggesting Telekom's involvement as a competitor.
- The City Construction Directorate claims the removals are due to Jotel's failure to pay outstanding financial obligations, leading to contract termination.
- Jotel denies owing money for the use of public lighting poles and states they have valid construction permits.
- The opposition in Niš views the cable removal as an effort to silence smaller operators that broadcast N1 and Nova S.
- This is reportedly a continuation of previous incidents where cables of Jotel and other smaller providers were cut, allegedly in cooperation with Telekom.
