The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has arrested Chirag Shah and Chintan Shah in a money laundering probe linked to the FairPlay app, which allegedly streamed IPL matches illegally. Viacom18 had filed a complaint with Maharashtra Cyber, following which the ED registered a money laundering case against FairPlay and others. The arrested accused were responsible for the app’s technical and software development.

Both were produced before the special PMLA court on Thursday and remanded to two days of ED custody.  However, the defence argued that the arrest was illegal, as the original FIR by Maharashtra Cyber had been quashed by the Bombay High Court.
