DNA Tests Confirm Four Accused in Swaroop Nagar Gang-Rape Case

DNA Tests Confirm Four Accused in Swaroop Nagar Gang-Rape CasePreviousNext

Delhi Police conducted two forensic DNA tests to confirm the involvement of four accused in the gang-rape and murder of a 16-year-old girl in Swaroop Nagar, Delhi. The Central Forensic Science Laboratory report detected human semen and a mixed male DNA profile matching all four accused on the victim's swabs. Due to the victim's decomposed body and possible DNA contamination, Y-chromosome short tandem repeat analysis was used to identify multiple male contributors, supporting the investigation's allegations.
