Captured Lashker operative to undergo lie detector test
New Delhi, Sept 7 (IBNS) Showkat Ahmed Bhat, a Lashkar-e-Toiba operative captured in connection with the Udhampur attack will undergo a lie detector test on Tuesday in Delhi, reports said.
The Patiala House Court on Monday granted a request of the National Investigation Agency (NIA) for conducting polygraph test.
Showkat was the driver who allegedly ferried the 4 Pakistani Lashkar-e-Taiba terrorists to Udhampur after they infiltrated into India.
NIA had apprehended Bhat from Pulwama in south Kashmir on September one in connection with the incident in which two LeT terrorists from Pakistan attacked a BSF bus in Jammu's Udhampur and killed its two personnel.
One of the terrorists identified as Mohammed Noman alias Momin was killed in retaliatory fire, while another Mohammed Naved was captured alive by villagers and handed over to the police.
