OsloPlaintiffs say Telenor gave Myanmar’s junta 1,253 phone numbers.
Phyo Zeya Thaw was arrested right after the junta accessed his account, his widow says.
The class action alleges the data included call logs, locations, names, ID numbers and linked Facebook and bank accounts.
Norway’s state owns 54% of Telenor, and Parliament opened its own inquiry in December 2025.
