COUNSEL FOR THE COPS CLAIMED THAT THE CONSENT WAS GIVEN UNDER 'DURESS' WHEN NO LAWYER OF HIS CLIENTS WAS PRESENT IN THE COURT
MOHALI: A local court of an additional district judge stayed the operation of the order passed by the court of judicial magistrate first class (JMIC) on April 16 allowing the polygraph test of six Mohali-based police officials in connection with the controversial interview of gangster Lawrence Bishnoi recorded while he was in Punjab Police custody in September 2022.
The counsel for the five cops submitted revision pleas in the court of an additional district judge saying that his clients have withdrawn their consent to undergo the polygraph test. The next date of hearing is April 28. The JMIC court had earlier granted permission to the investigating officer to conduct the polygraph tests in accordance with legal procedures.
