***Developments in India***
Date: 12/20/04 Time: 06:15:38 PM PST
On Friday last week, one of our employees, Baazee.com co-founder Avnish Bajaj, was arrested in New Delhi after a user listed a pornographic video clip on the Baazee site. The video clip itself was not shown on the site; the seller offered to email the clip to buyers directly. The listing violated Baazee.com’s policies and user agreement and was removed from the site once it was discovered.
Mr. Bajaj’s subsequent arrest came as a complete surprise and occurred while he was in New Delhi voluntarily working with police officials. Never before has such an action been taken against an eBay employee in any of the 32 countries in which we do business. His case, which is getting enormous attention from the news media, government and internet industry, strikes at the very core principles fundamental to eBay sites around the world, and at the basic roles and responsibilities of everyone engaged in open Internet commerce. eBay is working to secure Mr. Bajaj’s release from jail as soon as possible.
Baazee.com’s operations in India have not been affected by this situation.

Okay, so why was the guy arrested if they removed it once it was discovered.
