New Delhi, Oct 21 (IANS) Rejecting the bail plea of Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) leader Kobad Ghandy, a city court Wednesday directed the All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) to ascertain whether he was fit enough to undergo a narco-test as required by the police.
Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Kaveri Baweja directed the medical superintendent of AIIMS to constitute a medical board to ascertain the health condition of Ghandy and asked him to file a report by Oct 29.

The court passed the order after Ghandy’s lawyer opposed the plea of Delhi Police for conducting narco-analysis test on him on the ground that he was suffering from a heart disease and could not withstand such a test.

Delhi Police had moved the application for conducting the narco-analysis test on Ghandy arguing that they could not extract useful information as he was not cooperating.

Ghandy is presently in 14 days’ judicial custody.
