ABSTRACT This research uses comparative analysis of the use of geographical profiling approaches in the investigation of serial crimes on a global scale and in India. Geographical profiling is an essential tool in serial crime investigations since it helps to unearth criminal patterns and predict future crime locations based on the spatial behaviour of individual perpetrators. The research will offer an evaluation of the techniques utilized in different regions, highlighting the specific hurdles and achievements in their implication in the global context as opposed to the Indian context. This study uses various research studies delving into the Indian approaches and the international scenarios specifying the major differences amongst the policing strategies aided with or without geographical profiling. The objective of this study is for these findings to result in more streamlined investigative procedures and improved allocation of resources in instances of serial crimes.

Keywords: Geographic profiling, pattern of serial offenses, law enforcement inquiry, methods of investigation, comparative evaluation, global, Indian setting, spatial patterns of behaviour, instances for analysis.
