About 300 pages of information used by police to obtain a search warrant for Alexander Lisi have been released, and they include photos of Toronto Mayor Rob Ford meeting with his friend and occasional driver.

The document runs 474 pages long, with long redactions.

The release comes a day after an Ontario Superior Court judge ordered the release of select portions of the information used to obtain the search warrant leading up to the arrest of Lisi.

The documents include police notes with surveillance of  Lisi's contact with Ford.

The photos show Ford and Lisi meeting on several occasions and exchanging more than one package.

The documents begin with information from media stories on U.S. website Gawker and the Toronto Star about a tape that alleges to show Ford smoking crack cocaine. It also includes a now-famous photo of Ford standing in the driveway of a north Toronto home standing with three young men.

Lisi is listed as Alexander in court documents, but around city hall, people also referred to him as Alessandro or Sandro.
