Punjab cop’s friend, others to be subjected to polygraph test

NEW DELHI: After conducting a lie-detector test on senior Punjab police officer Salvinder Singh, the NIA will now subject two others, including his jeweller friend, who were kidnapped with him by suspected JeM terrorists before they attacked the Pathankot air force station, to the test.

Besides, the caretaker of a shrine the officer was claimed to have visited before the incident will also be subjected to polygraph test.

NIA sources said after the name of Singh was cleared, scientific tests on his jeweller friend Rajesh Verma, cook Madan Gopal and caretaker of ‘Panj Peer Dargah’ Somraj would be conducted this week.

Singh, who was questioned about the sequence of events ahead of the terror strike for close to a fortnight and subjected to various tests, may be called again if something new emerged from the polygraph examination of the other three. (AGENCIES)
