Some new developments in the case against the alleged owner of Kickass Torrents have now surfaced, and it does not seem to be good news for the larger Torrenting community.

In a court decision, Artem Vaulin was denied his requests for a supervised release with the case's judge stating that the accusations against him put up by the United States government is sufficient enough to keep him in custody.

The alleged owner of one of the largest Torrenting websites in the world was arrested back in July as Polish law enforcement raided his residence and seized his belongings. The 30-year old Ukranian was captured in Warsaw, Poland and has been held in custody inside a local prison ever since.

United States Federal courts had demanded that the accused be extradited immediately. The case itself has now reached the Court of Appeals in Warsaw, Poland.

Artem's defense attorney have since refuted all claims by the United States government and has asked the United States Federal court to dismiss the case entirely. His attorneys have also asked for their client to be released from prison on bail.

On top of this, the defense team also requested that Artem be allowed to transfer to a medical facility in order to get surgery for his spinal hernia. The Court of Appeals, however, denied all of the requests and explained that there is a valid reason for the extended detention seeing as the evidence that has been provided by the United States government was "sufficient."

The court decision also revealed that, upon further investigation, Artem's medical condition was not severe and that he could still get all the medical attention he needs while still being in custody. Artem's counsel had expressed their disappointment with the decision and claimed that it was a clear violation of the rights of their client.

Artem's extradition hearing is set to be held later this month.
