She has not been arrested, but has been questioned on Saturday and Sunday.
Sources added, "The calls were all made days before and on the day of blast. Hence, the suspicion. The number is said to have been kept on radar by the intelligence units. We are probing if it has any terror links or were casual calls."
A senior police officer said, "We have questioned the girl and are not saying whether she was involved or not. The investigation is at an early stage and will be tough to comment on the issue." A senior ATS officer and a home ministry source also confirmed that the girl was being questioned.
