2014 Nov 5th - Q86

How are the following three connected?
☞ Peter Sunde ran for European Parliament in May 2014 with the Piraattipuolue, a registered political party of Finland. Days later, on 31st of May, he was arrested in a rural area - Oxie - in  Malmö.
☞ Gottfrid Svartholm was extradited to Denmark, on 27 November 2013, where he was charged with violences such as infiltrating the Danish social security database and driver’s licence database. On October 31st, 2014, he was sentenced to three-and-half years in prison. 
☞ Frederik Neij, in early November 2014, was caught by the Thai police force, who were executing an Interpol warrant, while Neij was crossing the border from Laos to Thailand. Apparently, he was wearing the same shirt he wore from his arrest warrant, published in 2010.

[Highlight blank after arrow for the answer] 
=> Co-founders of Pirate Bay - following a police raid on their servers in 2006 May 31st, the police issued warrants for the three arrests. Piraattipuolue stands for "Pirate Party".
