Tamil Nadu cybercrime wing arrests main 'Jana Nayagan' leak suspect
Big news for movie fans: Tamil Nadu cybercrime wing just caught the main person behind the leaked footage of Jana Nayagan, a film starring Vijay.
The arrest happened on June 10, after KVN Productions reported the leak back in April, saying it caused serious financial losses and involved illegal copying and sharing.
Arrests at 19 after digital forensics
This brings the total arrests in the case to 19, including another suspect linked to a piracy network. Investigators used digital forensics to track everyone down.
Earlier, a freelance editor was nabbed for distributing leaked clips. The controversy also led to editor Pradeep E Ragav being suspended by his association, not for leaking, but for working with an unregistered freelancer.
The film itself has been delayed over certification issues, and authorities are reminding everyone about the risks of digital piracy.
