The heavy hand of the law is coming down on those involved in the distribution of TV signals. Last month, the cops swooped down on OTT services provider Jadoo TV's offices in Hyderabad for allegedly pirating TV signals and streaming them over the internet illegally, following a complaint by Maa TV. Equipment was confiscated, staff arrested.

Yesterday, it was the turn of the Mumbai based independent multi system operator (MSO) 7 Star Digital Network. It was raided by a group of close to 15 police officials. Reason: illegal transmission of 10 international channels.

The channels include HBO, HBO Family, BBC America, Sky Movie and Show Beyond among others. “We had got the information about the illegal transmission of channels. We monitored the platform from 3:30 pm onwards on 14 July and then conducted the raid, late in the night,” informs DCP Mahesh Patil.

Penetration of this Cable service is very less. It is limited to posh areas of Juhu, Lokhandwala and Bandra West.

May be that could be the reason but surprisingly most of the people who were enjoying these channels belong to same Industry.
