GTA VI Leaker Allegedly Contacts Outside World from Prison, Hints at Source Code Status
The extensive Grand Theft Auto VI leak saga might be taking an unexpected turn. Recently, the name Arion Kurtaj, the hacker responsible for leaking numerous GTA VI materials, has resurfaced in the gaming community's discussions.
Reports suggest that Kurtaj allegedly managed to smuggle a mobile phone into a British prison and communicate with the outside world. In these messages, circulating within GTA community circles, it's claimed that Arion expressed surprise that the Grand Theft Auto VI source code has not yet been publicly released. He also hinted that the code might be in someone else's possession.
It's implied that Kurtaj knows who holds the GTA VI source code and is reportedly puzzled as to why this individual or group has not made it public over time.
Nevertheless, a portion of the gaming community remains skeptical of these claims, speculating that it could be a hoax or simply an attempt by the hacker to troll players.
