"She is a very important witness in the entire case," SP (CBI) SS Gavli told reporters here yesterday.

He said the CBI will call Lucky to India or try to reach to her wherever she is.

The model had exposed the nexus last year after shooting a confession of her former boyfriend drug mafia Atala alias Yaniv Benaim on a spy cam and then uploading it on the Internet. She left Goa in February 2008 reportedly after a break-up with Atala.

The Goa Police which was initially investigating the case has not been able to get Lucky's statement although she has been extensively interviewed by the media.

Now the CBI is investigating two cases of the drug nexus involving Israeli drug peddlers.

In another case, the probe agency is investigating links of Israeli national David Driham alias Dudu with policemen.

While Atala has jumped the bail and stands arrested at Peru, Dudu is out on bail.
