ANALYSIS AND CORRELATION OF FINGER PRINTS WITH BLOOD GROUPS AMONG PEOPLE OF VISAKHAPATNAM DISTRICT, ANDHRAPRADESH-INDIA

INTRODUCTION: Crime scene has a specic identity, so are the criminals. Forensic medicine smells the criminal from scene of crime. It shows the role-play of criminals in the event of crime through detecting certain evidences. Finger prints are genetically inherited and are immutable from birth to death, hence considered as the best tools of identication. Literature states that there is a correlation between the physical characters and blood groups. Identication of nger prints along with the blood groups which are most common evidences in the crime areas, would drive the forensic scientist towards more reliable, accurate and denitive investigation. AIM OF THE STUDY: A. To Determine The Incidence Of Different Patterns Of Finger Prints Among Abo Blood Groups. B. To Ascertain The Correlation Between Finger Prints And Blood Groups. MATERIALS AND METHOD: The present study was carried out among 200 people aged 20-25 years in Visakhapatnam district, Andhra Pradesh using simple random sampling technique. Blood groups of all the subjects were determined in the pathology lab of the college. The nger prints were analyzed by two authors with the help of powerful hand magnifying lens. The observations were categorized accordingly and correlated with the blood groups. RESULTS & CONCLUSION: The study disclosed higher incidence of distribution with loop pattern followed by whorl pattern in O blood group subjects. Comparing the nger prints with blood groups there was no signicant correlation though the entities had their own signicance when analyzed individually.

Problems of Vehicle Identification by Tire Marks on the Soil

Scientific research is focused on the problems of vehicle identification by tire marks on the soil. It is argued that the car can either be a participant in a traffic accident or be used during theft of property or kidnapping. The constructional features of the wheels and tires of a car, which are important in the formation of tracks, are described. When the wheel comes into contact with the soil, the tread pattern is reflected. The features of the vehicle tire marks recorded by the investigator and the forensic scientist during the scene search have been determined. Photo or video recording of car wheel tracks is possible, as well as preparing the impression from the display of the tread on the soil. The possibilities of transport and traceological examination for studying the traces of car wheels have been established. The procedure for appointing an expert examination by an investigator is described. There is a list of materials that are provided for an expert study, as well as a list of questions that can be posed to an expert. It is argued that a problem in proving the involvement of a vehicle in the commission of a crime is the possibility of the vehicle tires or wheels to be replaced immediately after it has been committed. Recommendations regarding the identification of a vehicle based on tire marks on the soil are suggested. To establish the fact of changing tires on a car after the commission of a crime, the investigator must seize all sets of tires that are found in the suspect’s household or garage. It is possible to confirm the fact of changing tires on a particular car by interrogating employees of service stations located near the suspect’s residence. In addition to tire marks, to identify the vehicle, it is worth using the testimony of witnesses regarding the model and color of the car, traces of glass debris and paint chips at the accident site and damage on the car itself.

Prof. I. A. Sikorskiy. Epidemic free deaths and murders in Ternovsky farms (near Tiraspol). - Questions of neuropsychic medicine. T. II, no. 3.1897

Everyone knows the terrible drama that played out among the sectarians of the Ternovsky farmsteads: 25 people were subsequently (in groups) buried alive, dying to die a free death. This terrible Ternovo event is in our time an unprecedented fact, deserving a deep and comprehensive study. The extreme fermentation that led the sectarians to such a gloomy denouement should equally interest the historian, psychologist, forensic scientist and doctor - psychiatrist: each of them will find in this everyday drama a rich material for their scientific research.

Experience in combating economic and official crimes in the years of the new economic policy

The article gives a brief description of the main provisions of the new economic policy of the Soviet state, which had a significant impact on the criminalization of economic relations taking shape in the Soviet state of the period under review. The increase in the number of economic and official crimes, as well as the low efficiency of the investigation of crimes, put before law enforcement agencies a serious task to improve investigative activities. Based on the study of the unique works (1926, 1928 and 1931) of the forensic scientist V. I. Gromov, the conclusions are drawn and the most significant recommendations are given, which have not only historical value, but practical value for improving the practice of investigating economic crimes at the present stage.

Time dependent change of ethanol consumption biomarkers, ethyl glucuronide and ethyl sulphate, after single dose ethanol intake

Background and objective Ethyl glucuronide (EtG) and ethyl sulfate (EtS), minor metabolites of ethanol, aid to forensic scientist and clinicians to determine recent ethanol uptake when ethanol elimination is occurred. Present study aimed to show (a) kinetics of EtG and EtS in blood and urine after 0.5 g/kg ethanol intake (b) peak concentrations and time of disappearance in Turkish people. Material and methods Seventeen (10 male, 7 female) healthy volunteers participated in the study. Blood and urine samples were obtained during 48 h after consumption and analyzed in LC-MS/MS. Results and conclusion Blood peak concentrations of EtG and EtS were 0.13–0.389 mg/L and 0.211–0.5 mg/L, urine peak concentrations were 6.89–30.42 mg/L and 10.5–58.17 mg/L, respectively. There was no EtG and EtS in all samples 24 h later in blood and 48 h later in urine. Correlation was found between EtG and EtS concentrations in blood. Most of obtained data are similar to literature, except EtS dominancy to EtG in urine and blood.
