Phones Held as Tech Delays Probe | Calgary News

Published 1 month ago
Description

Calgary police just got a nine-month extension to keep cellphones seized from former mayor Jyoti Gondek and councillor Sean Chu—now they can hold them until March 2027. The delay? Investigators are stuck trying to unlock the iPhones with outdated forensic software that can’t keep up with Apple’s latest security updates. The case centers on allegations of corruption tied to campaign donations and a controversial land-use bylaw vote in July 2025. No charges yet, but the probe is alive—and detectives are banking on tech upgrades to finally crack the devices.
