He came in contact with some bad elements who used to target mobile phones. They asked him to purchase these phones on marginal rates. Initially Prem Ahuja used to dismantle these phones and used those parts in repairing mobile phones. But soon he mooted an idea of selling these phones inneighbouring countries so that the stolen phones may not be tracked. He met Munajir Ali through one of his relative who was also running a mobile repairing shop in Kashipur, Udham Singh Nagar, Uttarakhand. It was Munajir Ali who had contacts in Nepal. He coordinated the whole process of purchasing and sending the phones to neighbouring country.They started purchasing stolen/ snatched mobile phones, particularly Android phones for Rs. 3,500-4,500 and selling them off in Nepal at a profit Rs. 1,000/- a piece.
