<h1>Owners Denied Bail Over Alleged Money Laundering from Illegal IPL Streaming; Court Cites Need for Custodial Interrogation.</h1> A special PMLA court in Mumbai denied anticipatory bail to the owners of a partnership firm accused of handling proceeds from illegal streaming of IPL matches on Viacom18's platform. The firm, Maa Sharda Sales, allegedly received over Rs 13 crore from unauthorized broadcasts between July 2023 and June 2024. The Enforcement Directorate (ED) froze the firm's bank account, claiming funds were systematically laundered. Despite the accused asserting their innocence and lack of involvement, the court found sufficient evidence of their connection to the crime and emphasized the need for custodial interrogation to further the investigation.
