BGMI Developer Krafton Faces FIR

According to the FIR (No. 0474/2024), filed at Akluj Police Station on September 5, 2024, Krafton India and four of its executives are accused of breaching an online service agreement. The complainant, Santosh Torane, alleges Krafton improperly disclosed and monetized his personal information, violating confidentiality clauses. The charges include criminal conspiracy, cheating, and violations under the Information Technology Act, 2000.

TalkEsport’s reporting indicates that a court order from the Judicial Magistrate First Class, Malshiras, directed police to investigate the complaint after initial inaction. This followed Torane’s submission of proof that his complaint had been previously ignored by local police.

In response, Krafton India has filed two writ petitions in the Bombay High Court, challenging the FIR and seeking to halt the investigation. The High Court has combined the petitions and issued notices to the respondents.

This case raises critical questions about data protection and corporate accountability within India’s growing digital gaming sector. If the allegations are proven, Krafton could face significant legal and reputational consequences. Furthermore, this case highlights potential systemic issues regarding the handling of cybercrime complaints. The Bombay High Court’s decision could set a significant precedent for digital privacy enforcement in India.
