Bangalore: Extradited gangster Abu Salem today (Dec 29, 2005) underwent brain-mapping test at the Forensic Science Laboratory here in connection with the murder case involving builder Pradeep Jain, FSL sources said.

Salem was subjected to lie-detector (polygraph) test yesterday.

Salem was brought here from Mumbai for undergoing polygraph, brain-mapping and narco-analysis tests, after a Tada Court in Mumbai, hearing the 1993 bomb blast case, last week permitted Anti-Terrorist Squad to subject him to undergo scientific tests in connection with the case.

Through the tests, ATS intends to get more clues from him on the involvement of other accused in the murder case.

The Special Public Prosecutor Ujjwal Nikam had told the Mumbai Tada court that Salem had disclosed the names of certain persons who were part of his financial chain of collection and distribution of extortion money.

The scientific tests are intended to find out if Salem was telling the truth, Nikam had said.
