Tiger death: Suspect took away whiskers

ALWAR: The polygraph test on Parsadi Lal Gujjar in Sariska tiger death case is out. The suspect reportedly confessed that he cut the whiskers from the carcass of the tiger. However, he did not throw any light on the killer. Meanwhile, Rajgarh court refused to give permission to forest department for a brain mapping test of the suspect.

According to a Supreme Court order, the consent of the accused is a must in polygraph, narco analysis and brain mapping tests. However, none of these tests are admissible in the court as evidence and may only be used for further investigation.

"But we will appeal against the decision at the district judge's court," forest officials said.

The officials said, "The results of the polygraph tests arrived on Thursday. In the test, the suspect has confirmed that he along with his brother and son had taken the whiskers of the tiger but did not say anything on who killed it. However, his body language is suspicious and CBI officers therefore advised us to go for the brain mapping."

Gujjar said he, along with his brother Bhagwan and son Mithu, were returning after cutting wood when they found the tiger. "He confessed that they cut off the whiskers and took it but when asked whether he was involved in killing the tiger, he said no," said officials.

The state forest department had earlier planned to take Gujjar to Ahmedabad for a brain mapping test between December 27 to 31.
