Lie Detection Test Of Close Aides Of Social Activist Aditya Dash Begins In Bhubaneswar

Bhubaneswar: Polygraph test of three members of NGO ‘People for Seva’ founded by deceased social activist Aditya Dash began at State Forensic Science Laboratory here on Friday.

They are Smruti Ranjan Sethy, Bikash Baral and Deepak Behera.

Dash’s wife had undergone the lie detection test for around five hours the previous day. The Crime Branch, which is looking for a strong lead in the case, had prepared 70 questions for her. 

The probe team decided to go for this test following mismatch in the statements of Bidyashree and the NGO members during a series of interrogations.

Aditya was found dead near the train tracks at a railway station in Bhubaneswar on July 7. Since his death, speculation about whether he committed suicide or was murdered has been doing the rounds with his widow and close friends coming under the scanner of investigation teams.
