Deux employés de Bohemia Interactive Studios ont été arrêtés en Grèce sur l’île de Lemnos alors qu’ils prenaient des photos (apparemment des installations militaires présentes sur l’île). Les deux développeurs sont accusés d’espionnage. Selon Bohemia, les photos ne devaient même pas servir de documentation pour la géographie du terrain d’ArmA 3, puisque les accusés étaient en vacances. Ceci dit, Arma 3 se déroule en partie sur Lemnos, alors allez savoir…
La déclaration officielle de Bohemia :
We can confirm that two Bohemia Interactive employees, our colleagues and friends, were arrested during their holiday trip to Lemnos. They visited the island with the sole purpose of experiencing the island’s beautiful surroundings.
Since its establishment in 1999, Bohemia Interactive has created games based only upon publicly available information. We always respect the law and we’ve never instructed anybody to violate the laws of any country. The same is true for Arma 3.
Currently, all our effort goes towards supporting the guys over there, as well as their friends and families affected by this difficult situation. We sincerely hope that this is an unfortunate misunderstanding of their passion as artists and creators of virtual worlds.
On behalf of the Bohemia Interactive team,
Marek Spanel, CEO
