In the conversation between Lucky and Atala, the drug dealer has asked his former girlfriend to desist from creating problems for him.
"Now, if you start to make something... you are in big problem... Lucky, I have your address. I have everything...," Benaim is heard telling Lucky in the conversation.
Lucky, had uploaded the revealing video-clips on social networking website youtube.com before taking the flight to Sweden, after having a fight with Benaim. The duo had the conversation after Lucky went to Sweden.
The video footage had exposed the links between police and drug peddlers, leading to the arrest of seven policemen including police inspector Ashish Shirodkar and sub-inspector Punaji Gawas.
"Today the chief called me. Chief tell me you are finished for life...You understand. As now you need to think about this little bit you bet (sic)," Benaim says.
Police had earlier said that Atala was calling Shirodkar as Chief, as he was heading anti-narcotic cell.
