The Supreme Court in the case of Smt. Selvi & ors. v. State of Karnataka in Criminal Appeal No.1267/2004 has held that the guidelines by the National Human Rights Commission for the administration of polygraph test (lie detector test) should be adopted for conducting the narco analysis test and the Brain Electrical Activation Profile test. 3 The report dated 01.07.2010 submitted by the Sub Divisional Officer, 2 Lonavala to the learned PP shows that on 10.03.2010 and on 11.03.2010 the brain mapping and polygraph tests of the petitioner and other four accused were conducted at the Forensic Laboratory, Mumbai and on account of the interim order passed by this Court, the petitioner’s narco analysis test was not undertaken. 4 The issue of administering narco analysis test is now covered by the law laid down by the Supreme Court and those guidelines are required to be followed. 5 Hence, as of now, nothing survives in this petition and the same is disposed as infructuous.
