WRIT PETITION No. - 7559 of 2022] Case Citation: 2022 LiveLaw (AB) 478 The Allahabad High Court rejected the prayer of certain murder accused who sought a brain mapping test/NARCO/lie detector test upon themselves as well as the complainant so as to contract out the truth of the case. The bench of Justice Rajan Roy and Justice Sanjay Kumar Pachori however, clarified that if the Investigating Officer, on his own, decides to get the said tests conducted, then he can get the test conducted subject to the consent of the accused.

Chauhan set aside an order of the DIG (Establishment) Police Head Quarter, U.P denying compassionate appointment to the younger son of a UP Police constable who died during his service tenure.

The single bench of Justice Pankaj Bhatia has observed, "As the respondent has not approached for availing of the benefits that flow from Section 129, coupled with the fact that the appellate authority found that the basis for initiating proceedings was non-existent, I do not see any reason to interfere with the order passed by the appellate authority in the exercise of powers under Section 226 of the Constitution of India."

The proceedings were dropped by a division bench of Justice Ashwani Kumar Mishra and Justice Shiv Shanker Prasad after the contemnor (Advocate Sunil Kumar) tendered his unconditional apology orally as well as in writing.
