Pirate Bay founder Warg arrested in Cambodia
One of the founders of the popular file-sharing Pirate Bay website has been arrested in Cambodia and could now face extradition to Sweden.
Gottfrid Svartholm Warg was held in Phnom Penh after an international warrant was issued against him in April by Swedish authorities after he had failed to attend the start of his one-year jail term for copyright violations.
Pirate Bay is one of the world's biggest file-sharing websites, which provides links to other sites where people can download music and films for free.
