I think if you check, this information can be collected from their own offices, i.e. calls going to and from govenment buildings.
If they are looking for govenment leaks, that would be where I would look as well.
The article clearly states that they are looking first through the government records and second at the journalist's records, if the investigation leads them there.
There is nothing especially sinister here. This is how investigation are supposed to proceed. One thing leads to another.
Nowhere does it say they are actively collecting or monitoring journalist's records.
Phone records are available, as Stevo pointed out (without attack, sarcasm, etc.) from the phone company. It takes very little to for the authorities to get these records.
