In the new list of possible targets of surveillance released by a global collaborative investigation including The Wire in India are three phone numbers used by the woman who in April 2019 accused the then sitting Chief Justice of India Ranjan Gogoi of sexual harassment.

An in-house committee of the Supreme Court had cleared Gogoi, and he had been nominated to Rajya Sabha by the government soon after he retired.

According to The Wire, the numbers belonging to the woman, along with eight other numbers used by her husband and two of his brothers, were marked as possible candidates for surveillance in the week her allegations against the former CJI were reported.
