The CBI is conducting a polygraph test of Sanjay Roy, accused of raping and murdering a trainee doctor in Kolkata, today. A CBI team has reached the Presidency Jail with experts where Sanjay Roy is lodged. In this case, polygraph tests of seven people are to be conducted, out of which polygraph tests of four people, including Dr. Sandeep Ghosh, were conducted on Saturday. The test of the main accused Sanjay Roy could not be conducted due to technical reasons.
A team of polygraph experts from Delhi’s Central Forensic Science Laboratory (CFSL) has reached Kolkata. During a polygraph test, while a person is answering questions, his physical reactions are measured with the help of a machine and it is ascertained whether he is speaking the truth or a lie.
The CBI had told the Supreme Court on Thursday that the local police had tried to suppress the case of rape and murder of a trainee woman doctor and by the time the central investigating agency took over the investigation, the crime scene had been tampered with. There are widespread protests across the country against the murder incident.
