The polygraph test for Sanjay Roy, the main suspect in the Kolkata doctor rape-murder case, is now set to take place on Sunday at the Presidency Correctional Home, where he is currently incarcerated. The test had been delayed previously due to technical difficulties.

Despite Roy’s confession during intense questioning by the CBI, he maintains that he is being falsely accused.

The CBI may require additional time to complete the polygraph tests for all seven individuals involved, as the procedure is lengthy and only two testing devices are currently in use, according to PTI’s source.

Roy is held in Cell Number 21 of the correctional facility under stringent security measures, with CCTV cameras monitoring the area outside his cell. He is isolated and has reportedly told the guards that he has no knowledge of the crime.

In the meantime, the CBI has intensified its investigation into the brutal rape and murder of the 31-year-old trainee doctor. On Saturday, the agency questioned more than 15 individuals, including 10 police officers and civic volunteers.

The CBI also began lie detection tests on former RG Kar Medical College principal Sandip Ghosh and five others as part of their probe into the rape-murder case. Additionally, the agency has initiated an investigation into alleged financial irregularities at the same institution.
