After carrying out a detailed initial investigation, the police raided premises in Kalyanpur area of Lucknow on 22 May and found illegal tapping and unauthorised uploading of live content of all popular channels, including Zee TV, Star Plus, Colors, and Sony Entertainment Television (SET), on pirated websites. During the raid, more than two dozen workers were caught red-handed, digitally stealing live feed of pay channels using more than 50 DTH and cable TV set-top boxes (STBs). They were extracting TV feeds, removing watermarks and uploading them on their sites such as Desitvforum.net that are being accessed by millions of viewers abroad in USA, Canada, Europe, UK and Netherlands, ZEEL said. Thousands of dollars are being illegally earned by these pirates causing huge amount of losses to the broadcasters.
