The call detail records can be obtained by police for the investigations purposes and it is illegal to obtain.

Regarding the Face book you may know your I'd as it is attached to one mobile no as well or you search your self in other Facebook page.

Hello,

Yes you would violate the FR of your wife if you want to tap her phone.

If you have a doubt that someone is operating your account illegally, then you should inform the same to the cyber police to take steps.

For the first question- as for example, If you are investigating personally for any proof/evidence by hiring a private investigator then if call details is required then they can approach the required service provider, it is upto the authority of service provider, if they have no authority to disclose details then they will not disclose it. If it is a part of police investigation then if required they can ask for call details.

As a common man if you ask for call details then the service provider nay not provide ypu any details because of certain rules and regulations.

2nd question- if you do not have access to your facebook a/c as you do not remember your mail Id & passwd for both mail & facebook then you cannot know who is operating your fb a/c. You can try with your mail account with forget password option to search whether any of the mail account belings to your fb a/ c or not.

You cannot obtain CDR of your wife.

It is only for the law enforcement agencies to access the CDR details of an individual.

I'm sure you can reset your FB password, either by providing your phone number or e-mail ID. However, if your still fail to access your account, ask your friends to report your ID as spam, so that the same is blocked by FB.

Yes it is as it violates her fundamental right to privacy.

You can only ask for it under some special circumstances.

Yes you can know that just call at their concerned department or email to them providing some information when asked by them.

You will not be entertained by the service provider since it is a violation of privacy policy

If there is a case going on in a court of law you can approach the service provider through court based on the necessity.

Hi,

You may change the password and operate your accounts. For call records, you may approach to mobile operator office. It is generally not provided.

Call details of others are normally not provided to others. You can only receive the same if the sim is Registered in your name. Secondly the court can only direct the service providers for the call details.
