Ajmer, May 02: Rajasthan Police has moved a court here for permission to conduct a narco-analysis test on alleged Hindu right-wing activist Devendra Gupta, arrested in connection with the 2007 Ajmer Dargah blast which left three dead and over 30 injured.
“We have sought permission from the Chief Judicial Magistrate, Ajmer, to conduct narco-test on Gupta and a decision on it will be taken in the next hearing tomorrow,” Anti Terrorism Squad (ATS) sources said today.
The ATS has arrested three persons in the blast case – Devendra from Ajmer and Chandrashekhar and Vishnu Patidar from Madhya Pradesh. Gupta and Chandrashekar are on police remand and being interrogated by the ATS in Jaipur while the Patidar, who was apprehended yesterday, has been brought here.
Gupta is suspected to be linked to Hindu outfit Abhinav Bharat, which is allegedly involved in the Malegaon blast.
