What is the Narco test? Why is Delhi Police testing Aftab Poonawalla?

Delhi Police has been granted permission by a local court to conduct a drug analysis test on Aftab Poonawalla, the alleged murderer of Shradha Walker.

Police had approached Saket Court to seek permission to conduct a drug test on the convicted murderer, who, they said, had not cooperated with the investigation.

The police plan to use drug analysis tests to discover the full truth of the case

Shradha Walker, a call center worker, was allegedly murdered by her live-in partner, Aftab Aamin Poonawalla, in May.

According to police, after the two had a disagreement, Aftab strangled Shradha and killed her in the process. He then tried to hide the body by chopping it into 35 pieces. At first, he kept the loose parts in the refrigerator for a month and then dispersed them throughout the National Capital Region.

Aaftab was questioned by the police about the murder, however he did not cooperate. And now he will have to undergo a drug test.

Narco testing is a form of investigation in which an individual is administered a drug to find out the truth.

It involves injections of ‘Truth Serum’, made from sodium pentothal, scopolamine or sodium amytal.

When this medication is dispensed, the person enters various stages of anesthesia and eventually falls into a trance-like state. As a result, each individual’s self-consciousness is reduced, allowing them to communicate freely.

In this state, the subject is more likely to provide information or facts than in the conscious phase.

A psychologist, coroner or forensic expert must be present at all times and act as a supervisor during the drug testing process.

However, it is possible that a subject who has undergone testing could still provide false information even while under the influence of these drugs.

Aftab Poonawalla will soon undergo a drug test because, according to police, he deliberately misled investigators by lying about what he did with Walkar’s phone and the weapon he used to chop her body.

Is Narco testing always accurate?

No, the Narco test is not completely accurate. It was discovered that some subjects lied and provided false information even though they were under the influence of the above drug.

The Narco examination of convicted Delhi murderer Aftab Poonawalla is being conducted to better understand the mental health of the accused and gather details of the brutal murder.
