CBI joint director Arun Kumar told reporters in Delhi, "We have carried out two tests - polygraph test and narco analysis test on Krishna in Bangalore. We conducted two other tests before leaving for Bangalore. A psychological test was conducted on him in AIIMS on June 9. On the basis on these, we have arrested him." Arun Kumar refused to divulge details of the tests, but said that "investigations are on".
Telephonic conversation
It is not clear on what charges the police have arrested Krishna.

The investigating agency also arranged a telephonic conversation between Talwar and a close friend in Middle East.
