JOHANNESBURG (Reuters) - Nigeria's telecoms regulator has restored "regulatory services" to MTN Group, the South African mobile phone operator said on Tuesday.

The Nigerian Communications Commission prevented MTN from raising tariffs and launching promotions in October last year when it fined the company $5.2 billion for failing to cut off 5 million unregistered SIM cards.
