A 75-year-old woman could be jailed after she cut off the internet services of an entire country.
The elderly woman from Georgia cut through a fibre-optic cable while searching for scrap metal and managed to disable Armenia’s web connection for hours last month, as well as disrupting services in her homeland.
The Georgian interior ministry said the pensioner has been charged with damaging property and could be imprisoned for up to three years if found guilty.
The woman had been scavenging in the village of Ksani when she was disabled Armenia’s internet on March 28.
She damaged a fibre-optic cable owned by the Georgian Railway Telecom company linking the eastern European nation to its neighbour and for most of that evening, customers of Armenia’s leading internet service providers were unable to get online.
Thousands of Georgian internet users also faced disruption when the cable was severed.
