Customs officers have arrested three men after seizing 60 computers with downloaded pirated software, worth about $1.15 million, in a design house in Kwun Tong.

 

The pirated software installed included professional graphic design programmes, general office application software and an operating system. The retail price of their genuine versions amounts to about $700,000.

 

The arrested, aged 35 to 53, are company directors. They are now on $10,000 bail each pending further investigation.
