"I am not able to recollect if I had any telephonic conversation with her from my side. I am unable to I recollect exactly if she ever called me. I am sure that I myself never called her," said Raja while being cross-examined by special public prosecutor U U Lalit, who asked if he has ever met Radia or not.
