German police still searching for "armed and violent" FreakShare founders

A pair of Internet criminals are currently evading police in Germany as the authorities warn that the two are potentially "armed and dangerous."

The police have begun a manhunt for brothers Kastriot Selimi, 25, and Kreshnik, 22, the alleged founders of popular piracy sites kinox.to and FreakShare. Both are accused of copyright infringement crimes and also of armed robbery, arson, predatory blackmail, extortion and tax evasion of over 1 million euros.



Kreshnik and Kastriot are said to have violently attacked rival file sharing site operators, with "sometimes even a car bursts into flames," said a police statement. Both are considered violent and likely armed.

Besides their scary violent crimes, authorities believe the brothers are the key to shutting down a network of nearly 30 file-sharing sites including streaming sites, torrent sites and cyber lockers.

  "Predatory Blackmail".....that's bad!
  
  Give me a minute w/o anyone around w/each of these goons and I'd pound them to the point they'd forget who just beat them. That way there's no evidence.
  
  I hope they catch these two (assuming they are indeed guilty) and execute them. Let their family be w/o them!!!
