CKNW/98 radio in Vancouver said that Starnet's offices and the homes of six directors and executives were raided, and that police were also investigating possession of proceeds of crime. The company had been under investigation for 18 months regarding illegal gambling and distribution of pornography over the Internet, the station said.
