You have the right to remain silent,
Anything you think may be used against you...
The state police can now bank on a forensic tool to achieve speedy convictions. For the first time life sentences were meted out to the accused based on the findings of Brain Electrical Oscillation Signature (BEOS) profiling. Reports of these tests, conducted at the state forensic lab were held admissible in sessions courts in two brutal cases of murder.
"BEOS can read the reactions of brain even if the suspect remains silent. It can pin-point the actual person present in the crime scene among many suspects which both narco-analysis and brain mapping cannot do,"

'....Last month, MBA students Aditi Sharma and her lover Pravin Khandelwal were pronounced guilty by a Pune sessions court for conspiring to murder a fellow student...."
I thought that court only handled prostitution cases.

Sounds like something American legal prosecution forces (and various intelligence agencies) would love to have, which they'd promptly sell as "a better polygraph," but it's such crap, that's why it's being used in India, not here. Though some people may compare it to PET/CAT scans that show parts of people's brains "lighting up" in various circumstances, I don't fully understand the tech behind this BEOS stuff. Even the name is archaic. "Electrical oscillations?" Would this be, perhaps, the sort of thing an instrument might record if a person was, say, suspected of murder or some other crime and was nervous or otherwise feeling guilty?
