Development of older latent fingerprints by super glue technique: A case study

Arunkumar Kavad

Abstract :

 Finger prints are recovered as a main physical evidence in majority of crime scenes. Latent finger prints are the most common type of finger print which is left unnoticed by the culprit. A large number of methods are being practised for the development of latent finger print among which cyanoacrylate fuming technique is widely used for development of latent finger prints on non–porous surfaces. In the present study we have applied the technique for development of latent finger prints which were six months older. Cyanoacrylate gives good visibility to latent finger prints on all four different articles. Thus we conclude that cyanoacrylate fuming technique is the most suitable technique for the development of older finger prints found on the crime scene.
