DNA profiling has become an established part of criminal justice process, and the admissibility of the test results in the court has become routine. It has ability to eliminate the suspect in the cases where DNA profile of suspect failed to match with the evidence sample. In most cases, the best it can ever do is to place a suspect at the scene of the crime. The spots of blood give forensic scientists a chance to track down a least one or two suspects in mass crimes like murder, robbery, gang rape etc. In past decade, DNA profiling has been used widely to link suspects to the blood, hair, tissue found at crime scenes as well as on clothes or weapons recovered from suspects. With the use of short tandem repeat DNA profiling technique, it is possible to find out the involvement of suspects in the crime. In the present case, four suspects, in the parking area of the building, while robbing a bag full of about 6,00,000/- Rs., killed a businessman with knife as he opposed them. While running after the act, one of the suspect got injured with the broken pieces of glass adhered on the wall compound. Police submitted clothes of accused, deceased along with knife and crime scene articles. DNA profile obtained from blood found on clothes of accused, weapon, on the bag containing money and crime scene articles matched with DNA profile of deceased. Thus, the DNA profiling technique not only proved involvement of suspects in the murder but also in robbery.
