... RUMINT (RUMINT is Rumor Intelligence)

What I'm interested in, specifically, is the claim that there is cell phone signals bounced off Czech towers that place Cohen in Prague. This was NOT a claim made in the dossier. It was made by two journalists afterwards, not by Steele.

These journalists claim that their sources cited information that signals from a cell phone owned by Cohen were detected in the vicinity of Prague and that, during that time frame, electronic eavesdropping by an Eastern European intelligence agency picked up a Russian remarking that Cohen was in the Czech capital.

What I was wondering is whether the book contains new information that verifies that a cell phone owned by Cohen was detected in Prague. Does Steele confirm, deny, or even mention the alleged cell phone data? After the initial reporting, I never heard anything else about it, so I was surprised you mentioned it in the OP.
