Three people involved in a fan-made revival of Disney’s Club Penguin have reportedly been arrested by the City of London police.
In a statement given to a Club Penguin fan blog, Detective Constable Daryl Fryatt, from the Police Intellectual Property Crime Unit (PIPCU), said “Following a complaint under copyright law, PIPCU have seized a gaming website as part of an ongoing investigation into the site.”
The statement continues: “Three people were arrested on 12th April on suspicion of distributing materials infringing copyright and searches were carried out. They have been released under investigation and to aid with the police investigation, they agreed to sign over the website to the control of PIPCU.”
