Report from Egypt Daily News shows that 3 TVI Express affiliates have been arrested. An investigator from the fraud unit told 4 affiliates at a meeting to follow him to the police station. Two were released, and two were detained. When another rep (apparently an upline) went to police station to secure the two's release, he too was detained.

The case stemmed from several articles in Times of India, where officials in Indian Central Railways was alleged to have abused their power of management to force subordinates into joining TVI Express pyramid scheme, and punish those who do not and/or made complaints about such. It has been over seven months since the first report was published in Times of India, yet no action had been taken other than to transfer the accused managers to a different station.
With Tarun Trikha previously arrested, there may yet to hope.

Belated Update: Aussie TVI Express Scammer has NOT paid her fines
According to a report in the Sydney Telegraph newspaper back in December 2012, Teddi Jutsen, one of the trio of TVI Express scammers convicted in Australia of fraud, has NOT paid her fines for contempt of court charges.
The trio racked up contempt of court charges after they have been charged and their bank account frozen to prevent them from removing their ill-gotten gains. Teddi Jutsen, the court later alleged, abused the court provision that they are allowed to withdraw smaller amounts for living expenses. By going to multiple bank branches to withdraw various amounts below the limit, Jutsen was able to move out a larger sum of money than was allowed by the court. Details are unclear how much money was withdrawn.
It is unknown if ACCC, the agency that handled the prosecution, and thus will receive the fines, has received them from the fraudster trio. However, the court, which tracks the contempt fines, confirmed that it has NOT received any of the fines for the contempt charges.
