DO NOT REJECT DNA TEST REQUEST IN RAPE CASES, HC DIRECTS COURTS
Hindustan Times Rajasthan
|July 21, 2025
The Delhi High Court has ruled that trial courts should not reject police requests for DNA testing of rape accused as such analysis is not only crucial in establishing paternity of children conceived through rape but also in scientifically ascertaining the innocence or guilt of the accused.
A bench of justice Neena Bansal Krishna in her ruling said DNA testing is an “almost perfect science” to determine commission of an offence of rape.
“DNA testing...must not be declined especially when after 2006, Section 53A of CrPC has been introduced making it almost compulsory in rape cases to conduct the blood test including the DNA analysis,” she said.
