250g is more than enough. You only need [UNRECOVERED]. Keep the rest somewhere cold and dark.

And after? Is there any trace in the glass itself?

Not unless they run a specific panel. Standard tox won't catch it. Doctors see [UNRECOVERED] and call it [UNRECOVERED].

Deepa ji, are you aware of the audit scheduled for after the wedding? Harish sir has asked me not to brief you but I think you should know. The Mauritius transfers — they're related to Dubai.

I know about Dubai, Rakesh. I've known for some time. Don't involve yourself in this. Focus on the audit. It will take care of itself after the wedding.

I'm completely fine. Everything will be resolved after the wedding. Trust me.

"VC" — IDENTITY STATUS: The contact saved as "VC" used an unregistered SIM card. The number cannot be traced through standard telecom channels. Based on message content — particularly the technical detail about thallium detection and the phrase "keep the rest somewhere cold and dark" — SIT assesses this contact had specialist chemical knowledge. The identity of VC is not established by current evidence. It is not necessary for the conviction case against Deepa Singhania, who is the confirmed principal. VC may have been an advisor, a supplier contact, or an anonymous contact from the dark web.
CORROBORATION — FULL CHAIN: The messages confirm Deepa Singhania: (1) discussed the acquisition of thallium with a third party before the purchase; (2) confirmed the delivery on 14 February — the date of the purchase; (3) received the divorce notice and explicitly framed the wedding as "the right moment"; (4) deleted the incriminating thread eight hours before the murder. Her own words — "the solution to everything" — are now part of the evidentiary record.
