The Mumbai Crime Branch has found the details of revenue and payments of the Hotshot app from the mobile and chat between Kundra and his business partner Ryan Thorpe on Tuesday which was informed to the magistrate court. Kundra had planned to sell 119 adult films to a person for USD 1.2 million, the polices claimed during the hearing.
“Interrogation of Ryan Thorpe, another accused in the case, revealed that revenue from Hotshots was Rs 1,17,64,886 (USD 1,58,057) between August and December 2020," the remand plea of the police said.
During the search operation of Kundra’s office by the investigators on July 24, documents were recovered from nine files.
