The Enforcement Directorate (ED) has arrested two people Chirag Shah and Chintan Shah in the Fairplay money laundering case. According to sources, both of them were associated with the technical and software development of Fairplay and were close associates of the main accused Krish Laxmichand Shah. ED claims that these people have bought many properties from the illegal money (Proceeds of Crime) of Fairplay.

According to Viacom's complaint, Fairplay had illegally screened Tata IPL 2023, causing a loss of Rs 100 crore to the company. Maharashtra Cyber ​​Police is also investigating the matter and has recorded the statements of many Bollywood celebrities.

Investigation revealed that Fairplay made payments to the artists from the accounts of different foreign companies. Sanjay Dutt received money from a Curacao-based company called Play Venture, rapper Badshah from Dubai's Lycos Group FZF and Jacqueline Fernandes from Trim General Trading LLC. In this case, Maharashtra Cyber ​​Police has sent summons to Tamannaah Bhatia and Sanjay Dutt.

In the investigation, apart from Fairplay, another application named Picasho has been found guilty, which used to show pirated films and web series. The police found out from the data received from Google Adsense that the earnings of this application were going to a bank account in Rahim Yar Khan, Pakistan. According to the report, about Rs 5-6 crore was transferred to this account every month. Cyber ​​police is deeply investigating the illegal transactions made by these applications and the use of their funds. The rest of the accused in this case can also be caught soon.
