Q
They took my phone. What will they find?
A Answer
Assume investigators will run a forensic extraction. Deleted chats, photos, call logs, and payment records can often be recovered, including from messaging apps like Telegram, WhatsApp, and KakaoTalk. Your phone frequently reveals more than your statement. That is exactly why your account to investigators must be consistent with what the phone will show — another reason not to give a statement before legal advice.
