Indecopi evaluates sanctioning Latina for not passing all the matches of Qatar 2022

The executive president of Indecopi, Julián Palacín, announced this Tuesday that in the coming days it will be decided whether to sanction Latina for not broadcasting all the matches of the Qatar 2022 World Cup, after the discomfort of thousands of users was expressed on social networks for allegedly engaging in misleading advertising.

“Latina has these days to present her defenses. Soon we will have news about the position of the Unfair Competition Commission because it is a matter of national interest,” Palacín told URPI LR.

The head of Indecopi added that if Latina – which is labeled as “World Cup Channel” – knew that they were going to hire only half the service in the broadcast of the Qatar 2022 matches, they would have warned viewers in advance to hire the service. of DirecTV or allow another national channel to have been able to acquire the rest.

“This issue has been raised ex officio. The commission will rule (…) the Technical Secretariat, meanwhile, collects information from social networks and the media to determine if there was unfair competition in this case, ”he added.
