The Saket court in Delhi on Tuesday gave permission to Delhi Police to conduct a narco test on the Shraddha Walker accused Aaftab Poonawala on 1 December.
Earlier, Metropolitan Magistrate Aviral Shukla allowed a Delhi Police plea, moved by the investigation officer, seeking permission to produce Aaftab before FSL Rohini for conducting the examination. The court granted permission to produce Aaftab before the doctors for a pre-test medical examination at Ambedkar Hospital on 1 December.
The court also granted the permission to produce him at Forensic Science Laboratory (FSL) from Tihar jail on 5 December, sources said.
Meanwhile, the polygraph test of Aaftab was completed on Monday, and on Tuesday his post-polygraph medical was done at the FSL office here in the national capital.
“Aaftab’s polygraphy test was completed yesterday. There is no polygraph test on Tuesday. Aaftab is getting medical treatment on Tuesday, which means that after the polygraph test, Aaftab’s body parameters are being checked. The doctors are checking if he is medically fit or not,” said Delhi Police.
He was brought for the fifth time to the FSL office amid high security, as on Monday the Delhi Police van carrying him was attacked by some sword-wielding men. Border Security Force (BSF) security has been deployed outside the FSL office.
