Police have raided seven homes on Sunday night which performed illegal downloading of copyrighted music from the Internet.

Five men and two women, aged between 14 and 32 years old, are currently helping the police with their investigations.

The Intellectual Property Rights Branch (IPRB) of the Criminal Investigation Department has been receiving information from the Recording Industry Association Singapore that a number of online users were downloading and distributing songs illegally. Once the offender gets caught, he/she will be prosecuted and may face severe penalties.

"This clearly shows that these are serious cases. There are serious consequences. And not only will you get caught, but you will be prosecuted and you may face severe penalties. It is disappointing to know that it is well known that two young men have gone to jail earlier this year for similar infringing activities, and yet we still see some people not being deterred by such serious consequences." - CNA/ms
