Update: 2016-01-21 23:54 GMT
The lie-detector test on senior Punjab Police officer Salwinder Singh as part of the National Investigation Agency (NIA) probe into the attack on the IAF base in Pathankot concluded on Wednesday and he will now be subjected to behavioural tests.

Singh, at present posted as Assistant Commandant of the 75th Punjab Armed Police after being shunted out as Superintendent of Police (Headquarters) Gurdaspur, underwent the polygraph (lie-detector) test for two consecutive days. An official spokesman of the NIA while saying that the polygraph test was over refused to share any detail as it could hamper the ongoing investigation into the terror attack.

Singh had agreed for a polygraph test after the NIA informed a designated court about alleged “inconsistencies” in his statements before Punjab police and the Nationa; Investigation Agency.

Sources said Singh would be produced before a team of scientists on Thursday. 

The panel will include a behavioural analyst and psychoanalyst, who will give a scientific assessment of his personality.
