Thank you for taking the time to report this bug and helping to make Ubuntu better. Please try to obtain a valgrind log following the instructions at https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Valgrind and attach the file to the bug report. This will greatly help us in tracking down your problem.

As requested used the Valgrind and here is the log attached. While using Valgrind it never crashed, It crashes with out using it with Valgrind, some times the crash is inconsistent, but it always crashes when i try to link contacts. Hope the log helps.
