NEW DELHI: Nine
JNU students
will tell a court on November 9 about their decision on lie-detector test in connection with
Najeeb Ahmed missing case. The court, meanwhile, allowed the
CBI plea
seeking early hearing of the case.
The counsel of the students sought 10 days' time to file the reply on the CBI's plea seeking their consent for a lie detection test. Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Samar Vishal posted the matter for November 10, for further hearing.
A sessions court, acting on a petition in April, had stayed a magistrate court order which asked the nine students to appear before it and record either their consent or refusal to undergo a lie detector test. The students' revision petition was against the magistrate court order dated March 30.
The CBI application was moved on the direction of the Delhi high court for an early hearing of the plea, which was adjourned to January 24, 2018.
