INTRODUCTION:

       Identifying, recording, and gathering physical and biological evidence at the crime scene is the aim of crime scene investigation. Because the case being investigated must be presented in court, this process must be carried out carefully and thoughtfully. Piecing together the facts to create a picture of what happened at the crime site will be essential to solving the crime. Securing the crime scene, taking pictures, doing a thorough search, documenting the scene methodically, and appropriately gathering, packing, preserving, and transporting all of the evidence found at a particular crime scene are all part of crime scene investigation. Most of the time, whether or not physical evidence will be used to solve or prosecute crimes depends heavily on the investigating officer who guards and investigates a crime scene^[1].
