MUMBAI: MSM Discovery, the company which distributes channels under the One Alliance brand, recently conducted a raid on Dipak Poddar cable network in Katihar, Bihar for pirating the signals of Max, the official broadcaster of IPL.

The raid was conducted on 8 May with the assistance of local police and the Court Commissioner appointed by the Delhi High Court.
