No “discrepancies” have been found in polygraph (lie detection) test conducted on captured LeT terrorist Mohammed Naved Yakub, involved in the August five Udhampur attack on a BSF bus that left two border guarding force personnel dead.

The National Investigation Agency (NIA) received the report of the test carried out on August 18.

Official sources said the report from the Central Forensic Science Laboratory (CFSL) found “no discrepancies” during the test on Naved, 21, who hails from Faisalabad in Pakistan.

During his polygraph test, Naved replied “properly and to the satisfaction” of the interrogators, sources said.

Naved was earlier claimed to have made “contradictory and misleading” statements about his Indian contacts and the route taken by his group to infiltrate India.

The focus during the questioning was on his association with Lashkar-e-Taiba leadership in Pakistan, whereabouts of Zhargham alias Mohammed Bhai and Abu Okasa, another Pakistani terrorist who had infiltrated with him.
