that the department received 19 exhibits concerning this case on 14.07.2011, in
a sealed condition, which as per his cross, he examined on 18.07.2011. The
expert’s report reveals that DNA was extracted through the Automated DNA
Extraction System 12 GC and Organic extraction. 16 desired genetic markers
were taken from DNA to be tested by Amplification Multiple PCR Technique.
Thus, genotyping profile was obtained along with Automated DNA sequencer
of amplified DNA, AmfF/STR Identifier kit, AmpF/STR Y Filer kit. The
analysis of the results was done by gene mapping software v3.5. PW-35
clarified that ‘physical substance’ mentioned in the report is meant to be blood.
130. All of the articles obtained in connection to Megha (cotton swab of blood
near her body A1, clothes B1, vaginal smear slide B2, bullet seized from her
body B4) were compared and uniform female DNA profile was found.
Similarly, a uniform female DNA profile was found in the case of articles in
connection to Rohini (A2, C1, C2) and Ashlesha (A3, D1, D3). These DNA
profiles were then compared with the DNA material extracted from the clothes
of the three accused, and the two knives recovered from Rahul and Manoj,
which form a part of the DNA report. The conclusions of the DNA matches and
consequent opinion of PW-35 in the report, are summarised in the below table:
Victim

Bullet (Ex. B4) recovered from body of deceased
Ashlesha
A3, D1, D2
Clothes (Ex. G3) and knife (Ex. G1) recovered from Manoj
131. DNA material found on the bloodstained bedsheet seized from the scene
of the crime (Ex. A9) indicated presence of mixed DNA profile of the deceased,
i.e. DNA material of more than one individual. There is no mention of DNA
