Silk Road version 2.0, the resurrected marketplace for the trade of illegal drugs and contraband goods on the internet has been closed by the US authorities a second time. An arrest of a 26 year old, alleged operator of the site, in San Fransico, sparked an investigation and the appearance of a takedown notice from the FBI and Europol. This follows a similar arrest and takedown last year. Screengrab of Silk Road takedown notice. Thursday 6th November 2014. Credit: David Colbran/Alamy Live News
