The phone number then passed to Konstantin Dishliev, a crooked businessman, who was gunned down outside an Indian restaurant in Bulgaria's capital Sofia after taking over the jinxed line.

跟着这个手机号又到了Konstantin Dishliev手里。他是个不法商人。在保加利亚首都索菲亚的一家印度餐馆外中枪，延续了这个诅咒链。

Dishliev, an estate agent, had secretly been running a massive cocaine trafficking operation before his assassination in 2005.

在他05年中枪之前，作为地产代理的他曾秘密地进行大宗可卡因交易。

He died after £130 million of the drug was intercepted by police on its way into the country from Colombia.

他死前，警方截获了他从哥伦比亚运往保加利亚的1.3亿英镑毒品。

Since then, the number is understood to have been dormant while police maintained an open file on Dishliev's killing and his smuggling ring.

自此，这个号码就停用了。警方为Dishliev的死和他的不法交易圈保留了公开记录。

Now phone bosses are said to have suspended the number for good. Callers now get a recorded message saying the phone is "outside network coverage."

现在这个号码已经永久性地停用。如果打它，会得到“用户不在服务区”的提示。

A Mobitel spokesman would only say: "We have no comment to make. We won't discuss individual numbers."

该通讯公司的发言人只是说：“我们对此不做评论。我们不会谈论私人的号码。”
