        Damn.

        "We had a mole go in to the call centres to verify. The best part is that they were actually recording all their calls. We have recovered 851 hard disks on which the calls were recorded, so we’re going through those now," Singh told The Guardian.

        Awesome - I wonder who paid them to do that?

            The government wanted to start their own operation and couldn't have two different telephone numbers going at the same time.

            Therefore arrest those guys...

                Better ask another question: Who wrote precise instructions to do so.
