(Telecompaper) Mexico's Federal Competition Commission (CFC) fined Telmex MXN 657.4 million for denying interconnection to competitor Axtel, Dow Jones reported. The regulator said Telmex deliberately refused Axtel access to its dedicated links. This violation lasted from August 2009 to June 2011, in 32 cities and on six long-distance routes, inhibiting Axtel's ability to offer service to its clients. Telmex now has 30 days to appeal the ruling.
