BENGALURU (Reuters) – India’s federal crime fighting agency on Tuesday searched the premises of Coda Payments India, distributor of Sea Ltd’s Free Fire, as part of an investigation into the now-banned popular game.
The Enforcement Directorate said in a tweet that it had also frozen Coda’s bank account with a balance of 685.3 million Indian rupees ($8.40 million).
Coda Payments did not immediately respond to an email seeking comment.
