Police have made another arrest over the piracy of Kannada film 'Pailwan'. A 32-year-old mobile phone store owner has been apprehended for selling a pirated clip of the movie for as little as Rs 10.

Praveen, a resident of Netaji Nagar, was arrested by the KP Agrahara police following a complaint filed by the film's producer, Swapna Krishna.

Police said Praveen had downloaded the video from a website and was selling it to customers by copy-pasting it in their pen drives for Rs 10. "This is a clear violation of the Copyright Act," a police officer said.
