SINGAPORE - A court order has been obtained requiring local internet service providers to block access to 50 more pirate domains linked to apps and websites showing English Premier League matches illegally.

Premier League General Counsel Kevin Plumb said that the organisation is pleased that the courts and law enforcement authorities in Singapore continue to recognise the importance of protecting intellectual property rights. Across the region, the Premier League said it is actively working with local authorities and broadcast partners in Singapore, Hong Kong, Indonesia, Malaysia, Thailand and Vietnam to crack down on those involved in selling and distributing its content illegally.

The Premier League said this was the first criminal enforcement action against a commercial premise for copyright infringement under Hong Kong’s copyright laws.
