Three Arrested in Raids on Magis TV Pro Piracy Network as ISP Owner Flees

Federal authorities are tracing over 160 million pesos in illicit transfers linked to Magis TV Pro subscriptions

Overview

  • Simultaneous raids by federal and provincial forces in Chubut, Río Negro and Mendoza on July 24–25 led to the detention of three key resellers of Magis TV Pro.
  • Owner Ulises Jorge Velázquez, head of ISP UV Mundo Digital, is wanted under an arrest warrant after being accused of wholesaling subscriptions to the region’s largest illegal IPTV platform.
  • Judge Esteban Rossignoli approved detention orders this month at the request of Prosecutor Alejandro Musso, charging the suspects with intellectual property infringement.
  • Financial forensics teams, aided by Mercado Pago data, have traced more than 160 million pesos in transfers made to Velázquez’s personal accounts.
  • The operation forms part of a broader campaign deploying dynamic IP blocks during major sports events and pursuing a judicial order to disable the Magis TV Pro app on Android devices.
