CoD team may go to U.K. to probe call centre scam

Staff Reporter

BANGALORE: Inspector-General of Police (Economic Offences) Sushant Mahapatra on Wednesday said a team of the Corps of Detectives (CoD) would go to the U.K. to investigate the £2,33,000 HSBC scam, depending on information that might be given by HSBC call centre executive Nadeem Kashmiri during a narco-analysis test. Mr. Mahapatra told The Hindu that a court in Bangalore on Wednesday permitted the police to subject Kashmiri to the narco-analysis test. The CoD had filed an application in the Fourth Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate seeking permission. He said the police had to opt for the narco-analysis test as they did not get much information during the polygraph and brain-mapping tests conducted on Kashmiri last week. "The answers appeared to be deceptive and the accused was hiding something," he said.
