Man Arrested For Wolverine Movie Leak

A man accused of uploading a leaked copy of X-Men Origins: Wolverine online in March has been arrested by Federal Bureau of Investigation agents in New York.

The studio behind the Hugh Jackman movie 20th Century Fox, were left furious when a full-length print of the film started appearing illegally on websites.

This was a month before the movie was due for release in theatres.

The FBI was called in to help track down the source of the leak and on Wednesday they arrested Bronx resident Gilberto Sanchez.

The 47 year old has been charged with unlawfully distributing a pirated copy of the movie.

He now faces up to three years in a federal prison and a $250,000 (£156,250) fine.
