Police Arrests 6 in File Sharing Raid in Greece

Raids focusing on operators running file sharing websites have multiplied lately in European countries other than the ‘usual’ UK, France or Italy. Greece saw this week a major arrest related to one of the largest torrent sites in the country – six people have been detained for facilitating online copyright infringement.

The site in question is gamato.info and the operators’ homes were raided on Tuesday y in Athens and three other towns.

The arrest follows a lawsuit which a Greek copyright protection group had filled against gamato’s admins.
