"Operation Desert Safari" continues...

Considering that it would not be proper to bother the Delhi Police boys, who were up all night, I decided to set off on my own. I mainly concentrated on the Sarvodaya Enclave area where I found that every flat seemed to match most of the description given by the hostage If it had flower-pots, the green net was not in sight. If both were present, no dome like structure was closeby. Exasperated, I reached the residence of Inspector Rajendra Bakshi, the Begumpur-resident, who had helped us the previous night, to seek his help. He immediately
came with me and we searched many flats in Sarvodaya Enclave and Begumpur with the help of local property dealers, but to no avail.

We, meanwhile, had commenced work on the technical aspects of the case. We had managed to get Thekkat's international roaming mobile number 97150 641xxx from his family who, on our request, had got a print-out of the calls made and received by this number from the UAE mobile
service provider. Analysis of the print-out showed that it had been in touch with a Satellite Phone
number 0087376275xxxx. Thekkat's telephone book in Abu Dhabi showed this number in the
name of Vijay Rathore of Delhi.

Enquiries made with the mobile service providers in Delhi showed that Thekkat, on reaching Delhi, had called a Delhi mobile no. 98101 xxxxx. Location parameters of both the numbers in the morning of 11th March, at the time Thekkat's flight arrived in Delhi, indicated their location to be around IGI Airport. We analyzed the call details of the Delhi mobile phone and took it under interception. We found that the user was in touch with a girl in Vasant Kunj and attempting to fix a date with her soon.

Further analysis of these mobiles and other connected numbers that figured in their call details revealed that the user of 98101 xxxxx was also using two other mobile numbers 98102 0xx78 and 98100 2xxx9. Thus the concerned gangster had three mobile handsets with IMEI (International Mobile Equipment Identity) numbers 33212935923xxxx,
44519946137xxxx and 44736687469xxxx.
