The founders of The Pirate Bay, convicted in 2009 of copyright infringement offenses, have learned where they are to be held during their sentences. The trio - Peter Sunde, Fredrik Neik and Gottfrid Svartholm - will be separated and held in three locations around Sweden. But according to Sunde's lawyer, a further appeal might already be underway.

Yesterday it was revealed that Carl Lundström, the millionaire businessman who provided structural support for a fledgling Pirate Bay through his company Rix Telecom/Port80, will be spending his 4 month ‘jail’ sentence in the community.

Along with Pirate Bay founders Fredrik Neij, Peter Sunde and Gottfrid Svartholm, Lundström had previously found guilty of copyright infringement offenses in connection with the operations of The Pirate Bay.

Now it has been revealed Neij (TiAMO), Sunde (brokep) and Svartholm (Anakata) will be serving their sentences in three separate ‘Category 2’ prisons.

“We have three levels of security and we have put them in institutions with normal security,” Helena Lundberg, Chief Officer of Probation, told DN.

Fredrik Neij will spend 10 months in Kirseberg prison in Malmö, Sweden. The prison first came into operation during 1914 and has a capacity of 131 inmates and around 170 staff.

Gottfrid Svartholm will spend 1 year in Mariefred prison roughly 65 km from Stockholm. Built in 1958, it has a capacity of 112 inmates and 90 staff. Having previously spent time in Cambodia, Svartholm’s current location is unknown prompting speculation from Peter Sunde that he may even be dead.

Former Pirate Bay spokesman Peter Sunde has been told he will spend his 8 month sentence in Västervik Norra. Converted from a hospital over the last 7 years, this facility has 262 inmates and 250 staff.

However, for Sunde this may not be his ultimate fate. His lawyer, Peter Althin, has hinted that there may be an appeal of some kind in the coming months.

“I won’t go into it right now but it will come in the spring, we hope. It is our goal that [Sunde] will not have to sit out the sentence,” said Althin.

In addition to their jail sentences, all four convicted individuals are liable to pay their share of 46 million kronor ($6.78m) in damages. While the authorities have managed to find 225,000 kronor ($33,149) of Lundström’s money, investigations have turned up nothing in the names of Neij, Sunde and Svartholm.

The promise all along from the trio was that no matter what happened to them, two things would happen. First, that Hollywood and IFPI wouldn’t get a penny and second, The Pirate Bay would keep on going regardless.

Jail sentences aside, it looks like mission accomplished.
