NEW DELHI: A city court Saturday allowed a drug test in the Communist Party of India-Maoist (CPI-Maoist) leader Ghandy Kobad.

Chief Metropolitan Magistrate Kaveri Baweja allowed the exception of the Delhi police to conduct narco test on Ghandy.

Guidelines from the Court came after a medical panel submitted its report stating that Ghandy is able to be tested.

The court had asked last week a team of doctors from the Indian Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS) to determine the health status of Ghandy.

The police had moved an application for conducting the narco-analysis test on Ghandy saying he could not extract useful information as it was not cooperating.
