Singapore’s Samuel Seow Law Corporation is representing the rights owners of two Hollywood movies, “Queen of the Desert” and “Fathers & Daughters,” in legal proceedings that aim to go after illegal downloader of the films in the city-state.

Samuel Seow initiated similar proceedings on behalf of film studio Voltage Pictures against the illegal downloading of the Oscar-winning film "Dallas Buyers Club" last year.

According to media reports, applications have been filed in the Singapore High Court against the country’s three largest telcos, Singtel, StarHub and M1. 

The applications aim to get the operators to release details of internet subscribers who allegedly illegally downloaded the two films, following which Samuel Seow intends to send the subscribers letters demanding compensation.

The studios have identified more than 500 Singapore internet protocol addresses through which the two movies were allegedly downloaded illegally.
