COVER STORY: CRIME

CALL REGISTER

For some weeks before his arrest, the authorities recorded all incoming and outgoing calls to Ali's mobile phone

Ali maintained his links with his clients and his social circle through his mobile phone 9810247778. His average monthly cell phone billing was over Rs 15,000. The records of calls touch a wide section of Delhi's elite. A significant number of calls were received and made between 11 at night and 6 in the morning. However, mere telephonic contact with Ali does not in any way suggest involvement in the drugs trade. But since the recent calls were recorded, some of them may have to explain their links with Ali to the police.
