The Delhi Police Special Cell took the Parliament security breach accused to places where they assembled and the shop from where they bought flags before the security breach on December 13. In a related development, the Delhi Police on Thursday moved a court here seeking permission to conduct the polygraph test of all six people arrested in this connection.

 According to sources, Sagar Sharma and Manoranjan D, who had entered the parliament, were on Wednesday taken to Sadar Bazar where they bought Indian flags and India Gate where they assembled before entering the Parliament. The accused had distributed the flags and smoke canisters at India Gate before the parliament, a source said.

 The two were also taken to the Maharani Bagh area in New Friends colony where they had held a meeting to discuss their plan, the person said. An official privy to the investigation said that the accused were being taken to these places to establish the sequence of events that culminated with the Parliament security breach.

 The Delhi Police has arrested six people - Sagar Sharma, Manoranjan D, Neelam, Amol Shinde, Lalit Jha, and Mahesh Kumawat – for allegedly breaching the Parliament security.  All six have been booked under the stringent Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act.

On Thursday, the Delhi Police moved an application to conduct a polygraph test, also called a lie detector test, before the court. The application was moved before Additional Sessions Judge Hardeeep Kaur, who posted the matter for January 2, noting that the counsel representing some of the accused was not present.

 Police had also brought the six accused before the court during the hearing of the plea. The accused, Manoranjan D, Sagar Sharma, Amol Dhanraj Shinde, Neelam Devi, Lalit Jha and Mahesh Kumawat, are currently in police custody till January 5. The Delhi police, represented by Public Prosecutor Akhand Pratap Singh, had earlier told the court that “the attack was well planned.”

 He had further submitted before the court that the custodial interrogation of the accused was required to find out the “actual motive behind the attack,” and if they had any association with any other enemy country or terror organisations.

 In a major security breach on the anniversary of the 2001 Parliament terror attack --Sagar Sharma and Manoranjan D -- jumped into the Lok Sabha chamber from the public gallery during Zero Hour, released yellow gas from canisters and shouted slogans before they were overpowered by the MPs.
