CBI Conducts Polygraph Test on Kolkata Police ASI in Trainee Doctor's Rape-Murder Case

The CBI has initiated a polygraph test on Kolkata Police ASI Anup Dutta to investigate his alleged connections with Sanjay Roy, arrested for the rape and murder of a trainee doctor at RG Kar Medical College. The test aims to uncover if Dutta received any information about the crime or extended any favors to cover it up.

The Central Bureau of Investigation (CBI) started a polygraph test on Kolkata Police Assistant Sub-Inspector (ASI) Anup Dutta to investigate his alleged links with Sanjay Roy, who was arrested in connection with the rape and murder of a trainee doctor at RG Kar Medical College and Hospital.

With the permission of a Kolkata court, the CBI aims to uncover whether Roy informed Dutta of the crime or sought favors to cover it up. Dutta is the eighth person to undergo a polygraph test in this case.

This investigation seeks to corroborate evidence that could be pivotal in the trial, though the polygraph results themselves cannot be used as direct evidence.
