It adds that the court ordered the company to refrain from offering its customers TV Nova, Nova Cinema, Nova 2 (formerly Smichov), Nova action (formerly Fanda), Nova Gold (formerly Telka) and Nova Sport 1.

Commenting on the development, Martin Snydr, PR and brand manager of Nova Group, said: “we do not have a contract with Opton for the distribution of our stations, so their offer and distribution was illegitimate. We take legal action against the unauthorized dissemination of Nova’s stations”.
