Live Law  

In an unprecedented order, the Delhi High Court on Tuesday directed the Central Bureau of Investigation to look into the irregularities noticed by it in certain DNA reports prepared by Forensic Science Laboratory, Delhi.The Bench comprising Justice Vipin Sanghi and Justice P.S. In an unprecedented order, the Delhi High Court on Tuesday directed the Central Bureau of Investigation to look into the irregularities noticed by it in certain DNA reports prepared by Forensic Science Laboratory, Delhi. Accordingly, we direct the CBI to register a preliminary inquiry and to look into the working of the FSL in the matter of formation of reports in respect of samples received by them, particularly the DNA reports.” The Court had been approached by the State challenging a judgment passed by the Additional Sessions Judge, acquitting one Khursheed for the rape of an eight-year-old girl. The involvement of outsiders/ touts is highly probable in a case like the present, where the accused hails from a humble background and would not have had the wherewithal of directly approaching the investigating officers, or the police officials, or the officers of the FSL for seeking favours.” The Court, therefore, directed the CBI to conduct a preliminary inquiry and to look into the working of the FSL in the matter of formation of reports in respect of samples received by them, particularly the DNA reports.
