Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows

A 16-year-old who posted an unauthorised translation of the latest Harry Potter book online has been detained by French police..

The high school student from southern France was detained on Monday based on a complaint by the French publishing house Gallimard.

Gallimard has published JK Rowling’s Potter series in French and is due to release the official translation of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows on the 26th of October. It is known in French as Harry Potter et les Reliques de la Mort.

The unofficial translation was available online within days of the July 21st release of the English original. The site was later shut down by police.

Fans in several countries have already posted unofficial translations of the book online, including China. Publishers fear it could lead to a plethora of counterfeit books in China where piracy is rampant.
