2. Read the extract from the article in “The Guardian” and find out what Gottfrid Warg is accused of?
The Swedish co-founder of the file-sharing website Pirate Bay can be extradited to Denmark to face hacking charges, a Swedish court has ruled. Gottfrid Warg is accused of involvement in one of Denmark's biggest hacking attacks – on databases holding driving license records, official email messages and millions of social security numbers. The attacks on the databases, all run by a Danish subsidiary of the US technology company CSC, took place between April and August last year. Warg remains in custody in Sweden, awaits the verdict expected this week in a trial in Sweden in which he was accused of hacking into the IT systems of the Logica services company and stealing ID details of 9,000 Swedes. He allegedly attempted to transfer 5.7m Swedish kronor (£560,000) to various accounts. Warg and the other three Pirate Bay co-founders were found guilty in 2009 of assisting the distribution of illegal content online. They were all handed jail terms and a collective fine of $2m (£1.3m), increased at their appeal to $6.5m. Warg left the country before serving his sentence but was deported from Cambodia last year.
