The cooperation of courts, prisons, police and punishment ensures those who act with malicious intent receive justice. This cooperation is essential to the efficacy of the criminal justice system. Technology such as ballistics, DNA analysis and fingerprinting are used by forensic science, which is an essential component that transforms crime scene investigations. It functions as the nexus of the legal and scientific domains, advancing our knowledge of crimes, fostering relationships amongst those who have been accused and supporting the reconstruction of crimes. Not with standing advancement, challenges with gathering and preserving evidence continue to exist, which restricts the use of forensic evidence and affects the conviction rate in Indian courts.
