A pensioner has been arrested in the North as part of an international operation against online piracy.
The 65-year-old man was detained by the PSNI Intellectual Property Crime Unit working in partnership with the Federation Against Copyright Theft.
The operation forms part of a global drive against those selling the latest films, music, computer games and computer software online illegally.
The man was arrested in the east of Belfast, and a substantial amount of equipment and a sum of cash were also seized.
