New Delhi: Top Maoist leader Kobad Ghandy
on Wednesday approached the Delhi High Court challenging the trial
court`s order of allowing narco-analysis test on him.
The trial court had on October 31 allowed the Delhi
police to conduct narco test on 59-year-old Ghandy after the
investigating agency contended that it had not been able to
elicit all the information from him despite use of all
scientific methods of interrogation.
The trial court had passed the order after going
through the medical report submitted by AIIMS, saying that
Ghandy was medically fit to undergo the test.
Earlier, a special medical board of AIIMS had
conducted the medical examination of Ghandy and submitted a
report in the court, saying the politburo member of banned
CPI(Maoist) can withstand the narco-analysis test.
The police had on October 20 filed an application
before the court to allow it to conduct a narco test on the
Maoist leader.
Ghandy was arrested from the national capital in
September.
