Delhi Police is one of the law enforcement agencies that can access data from smartphones.
Delhi Police use tools from Israeli cybersecurity company Cellebrite such as UFED (Universal Forensic Extraction Device). The tools used by American agencies have proven to be far more effective than their Indian counterparts.
