Uttarakhand Court Orders Narco-Analysis for Urmila Sanawar in Ankita Bhandari Case
A CBI court in Uttarakhand has ordered narco-analysis and polygraph tests for television actress Urmila Sanawar in the Ankita Bhandari murder case, with the tests to be conducted in Gandhinagar, Gujarat. Sanawar and former BJP MLA Suresh Rathore consented to the tests amid allegations involving a 'VIP' linked to the crime. Sanawar was previously granted bail in a defamation case, and a fresh FIR was filed against her recently. The CBI continues its investigation into the case.
