In a major raid conducted by Jharkhand Police on complaint of Super Cassettes Industries Limited (T Series), at a House in Ranibagh, Ramgarh over 1, 35,000 (one lakh thirty five thousand) pirated CDs which included the latest Albums of T Series including Karzzzz, Om Shanti Om, Partner, God Tussi Great Ho etc were seized along with Copier Machines worth more than Rs.50 Lakh.

The CDs illegally copied here were being supplied to various parts of Jharkand, Bihar, Orissa and Bengal. The T Series authorities, on receiving a tip-off, visited various shops of the area pretending to be customers, and were keeping a vigilant eye for the CD pirates. Finally, T Series senior officers YP Singh, Lakshman Prasad and Vinod Kumar along with cop Mahendra Singh Munda conducted the raid.

The Police have registered a case in this connection under the Copyrights Act, 1957 against the accused persons named Sukhdev Mahto; Kranti Mahto; Pranti Mahto and Prem Kumar. The seized material is with the custody of the area police station.

Says T Series Creative Director Divya Khosla Kumar, who has also brought out an anti-piracy album to curb piracy, "we at T Series, have always taken a very strong stand against piracy and these raids serve as deterrents to others who make a business of piracy who cause great revenue loss to the country. But this will be controlled when each of us are vigilant and tip off against these miscreants, thus doing our duty as Indian citizens. Only then can we curb this menace."
