BANGALORE: The police on Thursday sought the permission of the 1st Additional Chief Metropolitan Magistrate court to subject Imran Jalal, a suspected terrorist who was arrested here on Friday last, to narco analysis.

Bangalore Police Commissioner Neelam Achuta Rao told The Hindu that once the court granted the permission, Imran would be subjected to narco analysis.

The police teams from Jammu and Kashmir, Maharashtra and Gujarat had come here and they were interrogating Imran, Mr. Achuta Rao said.
