Shruti Verma, Dr. Pradeep Kumar.

Abstract :

<p> According to the Locard’s Principle of exchange “Every contact leaves a trace”. When fingers of a victim or culprit come in contact with any object then it leaves their impression on it. This impression some time visibly appears and sometime is doesn’t. These invisible or visible fingerprints have plethora of information which is forensically utilized for the identification and individualization of victim and culprit. In this paper we present statistical assessment for differentiation and individualization of chance and complete prints. Both chance and complete fingerprints of Left Right Thumb and Index finger of male and female (50 each) are respectively developed by black powder/ ink method and recorded digitally by photography. It has been observed the male complete and chance print show similarity with an average of 77.6% and female with an average of 74.4%.</p>
