Since it was the first concrete lead we preferred to wait outside the Qazi's office. We approached him again pretending to fix the exact timing for our next visit.
Zakaria asked us to come on Friday (i.e December 21) post ‘jummah’ (Friday prayer). Luckily in the middle of the conversation, we heard Zakaria talking to someone over the phone about meeting with an Arab. Our suspicion turned true when we saw one Arab entering his office while we were leaving his office. A short while later, he was followed by a group of burqa-clad women.u00a0

After about 30 minutes, we spotted the Arab leaving the Qazi’s office. He was later joined by one of the women in the group. During one of our later conversations, Zakaria himself confirmed to us that he had performed a 15-day marriage of the same Arab, who is an Iranian national, with a virgin girl for Rs 35,000. Zakaria confirmed that the Arab client was living in a hotel at Colaba.
