The narco-analysis test on Pandey at Bengaluru was not short of any drama. He was mobbed by reporters when he went in.
After the test, Pandey requested the ATS not to take him outside immediately as he did not want to be photographed by the media. He then had his dinner at the hospital.
However, this was misconstrued by a section of the media, which was quick to report that Pandey had not woken up after his narco-analysis due to an over-dosage.
As the media continued to flash the news, the ATS managed to slip Pandey out of the hospital and take him back to Mumbai for further investigation.
