He had the privilege to order the costliest food Chinese and visible in the menu along with different desserts after lunch and dinner besides ordering Indian and foreign liquor via room service. Investigators said that the suspect spent somewhere around ₹ 55,000 on the overall stay at the hotel and food to operate for the cybercrime gang along with paying ₹ 50,000 to Sumit for providing his account access to the gang.

He registered an FIR at the Cybercrime police station (south) on June 9. As per police, Kumar was on two-day police remand for interrogation till Friday during which he disclosed details of the suspects including the who had accompanied him to Chandigarh. 'He was promised good food, liquor and a nice hotel, and all expenses were taken care of. Once they reached Chandigarh on May 28, Mohit took possession of Sumit's account credentials and phone. Over the next six days, crores were routed through his account, which Mohit and his gang remitted to other accounts,' said Sandeep Kumar, Gurugram police PRO. Sumit was largely kept uninvolved in the details of the scam. 'He enjoyed the trip, unaware of the full scale of the fraud, but complicit in allowing his account to be used,' Kumar said. Upon returning to Mahendragarh, Sumit was paid ₹ 50,000 in cash for 'renting' his account, and Mohit vanished. Police recovered Sumit's phone and two SIM cards linked to the transactions.
