HC restrains police from narco test on Ghandy

The court passed the order after Ghandy’s counsel Rebecca M John submitted that until and unless Constitutional validity of narco test is decided by the Supreme Court,an accused cannot be forced to undergo such a test.

She submitted that the Supreme Court has been consistently denying such a test on accused in view of the pending case before it in which a Constitution bench has reserved its order.

The High Court also issued notice to the police and directed it to file a status report by December 14.
