Sir,
One of my friend has been resently arrested by UP police under sec-63/65 of copyright act and sent to jail.His offence was he had the pirated s/w of MS Office given to him by one of Microsoft ssociate distributor of delhi as my friend himself is an employee of Microsoft and from pkt. one cannot make wether it is pirated or original as it only contain one s/w licence key number slip and not any cd.At the time of raid the s/w were there at his house as was given to him in pkt. formed to be collected by AD fellow and thus he does't had the bill with him .Does this offence comes under section 63/65 or not and my second question is- is it a bailable offence or not and which court is the appealte body so that we may move forwrd.shirish shekhar
