DSL ordered all Ugandan radio stations to cease broadcasting English Premier League games unless they have been sub-licensed by (DSL).

DSL claimed to have acquired exclusive rights to broadcast all English Premier League games in Uganda via radio.

DSL further noted that is was also granted exclusive rights to hold/use the EPL logo, the EPL anthem, club names, and logos.

“On behalf of our members, and in acknowledging your Public Notice in respect to the acquisition of English Premier League (EPL) Intellectual Property Rights, we hereby invite you for a meeting on a date and time of your choosing preferably next week or at your earliest convenience,” NAB write in an August 31 letter.

NAB noted that the purpose of the meeting is to understand and seek full disclosure in respect to the mandate DSL holds to determine the extent of authority and authenticity of the claim.

NAB further seeks to understand the nature of the license by DSL to establish whether it (DSL) got due authority to stop anyone rebroadcasting from a primary licensee.

These, NAB said will enable them to advise and guide its members accordingly.
