From Desk of Director (R&D) BPR&D 70 www.bprd.gov.in Editorial The 26/11 terrorist incident in Mumbai would take a long time to heal from Indian collective psyche. However, for Indian Police and Internal security fraternity, and other stakeholders, this urban combat/terrorist daredevilry is a stern reminder to have a close look at our existing security apparatus and systems to ensure against recurrence of such incidents anywhere in the country. The valorous act, shown by lathi-weilding martyred Head Constable who did not let go Pakistani terrorist (who was eventually arrested) despite taking hit of more than dozen high-caliber bullets and other 15 officers and jawans of Mumbai Police, who laid their lives in the best tradition of duty before self is of utmost inspiration for their fellow brothers and sisters. It has added another glorious chapter to the history of Indian Police in service of the country. Shri Sankar Sen, IPS (Rtd), in his article, 'Assessment and Evaluation of Community Policing' underlines the importance of assessment and evaluation of community policing, to enable the policy makers to discover weakness in the implementation. Dr. K.P. Singh, IPS, in his paper 'Human Organ Transplant: Legal and Ethical Contours' deals with legal and ethical aspect of human organ transplant. This issue needs urgent attention as it involves human rights violation, exploitation of poor and underprivileged section of society, illegal trade, black market and related legal and ethical issues. The paper 'Impact of Visiting on Prisoner's Reformation and Rehabilitation' by Dr. Deepti examines the impact of effective visiting system on prisoner's reformation and rehabilitation. The article 'Strategic Management of Training Information System in CPMF' by Shri Rakesh Kumar Singh emphasizes the importance of training information system, which is an effective management tools to inculcate competence and professionalism in augmenting the efficiency and services of our central Para-Military Forces (CPMFs). Shri Shrikant H. Lade and Dr. (Mrs.) R. Krishnamurthy, in their research paper, 'DNA Profiling of Bone by Using New Raipd DNA Isolation Protocol' present an innovative technique of DNA profiling through decalcification DNA isolation in protocol for bone, and use of nanocep devices to isolate and concentrate DNA, in cracking dead-end cases. Through this technique, one and half year old bone of a surgeon, murdered brutally in jungle, led to conviction of the culprit. Promoting Good Practices and Standards Editorial The paper 'Role of Forensic Science in Intelligence Setup' by Shri D.C. Pande underlines the importance of forensic science in intelligence setup. The knowledge of latest technique of forensic science provides intelligence setup an edge in documentation, explosives, DNA fingerprinting, chemical analysis of material, crypto-analysis, clandestine electronic surveillance, narco-analysis, brain mapping, misinformation, etc. Shri J.K. Misra, in his article 'Naxal Violence: Theorectical and Growth Perspectives' analyzes the dynamics of Naxal violence through the prism of theoretical and growth perspective. He maintains that poverty, inequality, exploitation, unemployment, half-heartedly implemented land reform and lack of equitable growth has led to the spread of Naxal violence. The theoretical support provided by Chinese and other international communist organizations has provided fertile ground for this menace. The paper 'Management Style : A Blind eye to the Underground Economy of Prison' by Dr. H.S. Bhawara and Smt. Baljeet Kaur discusses the impact of underground economy of Prison on correctional effects and its larger ramification for the society. Dr. A.K. Jaiswal and Ms. Archna Negi, in the their paper, 'Extraction and Detection of Morphine from Viscera by Solvent Systems Using High Performance Thin Layer Chromatography Plate' maintain that using HPTCL (High Performance Thin Layer Chromatography Plate) for separation and identification of morphine is very cost-effective. This method is well-suited for day-to-day analysis, and more effective than instrumental methods such as UV, GC and TCL. We hope that our esteemed readers will get maximum benefit from these articles and contribute to their respective fields in more enlightened way. Gopal K.N.

Two of the research questions examine specifically what impacts vulnerability and protection among a sample of 43 individuals living in a community in India. The third research question explores the role of the living organ donor assessment process in the prevention of trafficking. In this dissertation, the theoretical understanding of how choices are made, or not made, particularly by vulnerable individuals, is explored. Qualitative interviews were conducted with persons trafficked for organ removal and persons not trafficked for organ removal who are living within the same socio-economic environment, but who were not all trafficked for organ removal. Study data were analyzed using constructivist grounded theory methods. Findings from this study show that economic, cultural, and social influences affect both protection from and susceptibility to trafficking.

  • Death Is Never Over Life, Death and Grave Robbery in a Historic Cemetery
    Death is Never Over Life, Death and Grave Robbery in a Historic Cemetery By Rebecca Boggs Roberts B.A. in Politics, June 1992, Princeton University A Thesis submitted to The Faculty of The Columbian College of Arts and Sciences of The George Washington University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts May 20, 2012 Thesis directed by Roy Richard Grinker Professor of Anthropology, International Affairs, and Human Sciences Dedication This thesis is dedicated to the 55,000 men and women who are buried at Historic Congressional Cemetery in Washington, D.C. It’s been nice knowing you. ii Acknowledgements The author wishes to thank the staff at Historic Congressional Cemetery for their support and good humor; Cokie and Steve Roberts for the babysitting and copy editing; Dan Hartman for his infinite patience; and Jack, Cal, and Roland Hartman for letting mom steal the comfy desk chair. iii Abstract Death is Never Over Life, Death, and Grave Robbery in a Historic Cemetery The anthropology of death rituals describes various relationships among the three points of a triangle formed by the corpse, the soul, and the survivors. This structure, first proposed by Robert Hertz in 1907 and adapted many times since then, is useful for comparing seemingly disparate death rituals across cultures. Using this structure, the relative emphasis of one leg of the triangle over another can help clarify the needs a living community prioritizes upon the death of one of its members. I argue one leg of this triangle, the connection between the survivor and the corpse, deserves a longer period of examination.

  • Dissection: a Fate Worse Than Death
    Res Medica, Volume 21, Issue 1 Page 1 of 8 HISTORICAL ARTICLE Dissection: a fate worse than death Elizabeth F. Pond Year 3, MBBS Hull York Medical School Correspondence email: [email protected] Abstract The teaching of Anatomy in medical schools has significantly declined, and doubts have been raised over whether or not doctors of today are fully equipped with anatomical knowledge required to practice safely. The history of anatomy teaching has changed enormously over centuries, and donating your body to medical science after death is very different today, compared with the body snatching and exhumations of the 18th and 19th centuries. With stories of public outcry, theft and outright murder, the history of anatomical education is a fascinating one. History has made an abundance of significant anatomical discoveries, is it not fundamental that medical students today are aware of the great lengths that our peers went to in order to obtain such pioneering discoveries?

  • History – Body Snatching! on the 17Th May 1978 the Body of Famous Actor
    History – Body Snatching! On the 17th May 1978 the body of famous actor Charlie Chaplin was found. The strange thing about this is that Charlie had died on Christmas day 1977 and he was buried in a cemetery near the family home. However, his body, still in the coffin, was stolen from his grave! It took 11 weeks to find the stolen body. The people who stole Charlie’s body were hoping to get a large amount of money to return it. This certainly wasn’t the first time people had stolen human bodies. Video clip - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h7L8CM03lMo Before 1832 it was illegal for anyone to dissect human bodies (apart from some criminals). Who do you think would want to dissect a human body? Why would they want to? Why do you think they were not allowed to? In 1832 a new law was introduced that allowed doctors, medical students and teachers of anatomy to dissect bodies that were donated to them. Before this the only way anyone could dissect a body was if a criminal was executed and the court said they could have the body. This meant that very few bodies were available for doctors to study. Doctors said it was important to do this so they could learn how the human body worked. So, some doctors would pay for bodies that came from other places! People started to steal dead bodies from hospitals, morgues and even graveyards. But they had to be fresh! Grave with metal bars to stop body snatchers. A watchtower in a cemetery to catch body snatchers.

PREFACE. Shortly after the decease of Dr. Robert Knox (Dec. 1862), several friends solicited me to write his Life, but I respectfully declined, on the grounds that I had no literary experience, and that there were other pupils and associates of the Anatomist senior to myself, and much more competent to undertake his biography : moreover, I was borne down at the time by a domestic sorrow so trying that the seven years since elapsing have not entirely effaced its influence.

  • Epistemic Communities, Human Rights, and the Global Diffusion of Legislation Against the Organ Trade
    social sciences $€ £ ¥ Article Epistemic Communities, Human Rights, and the Global Diffusion of Legislation against the Organ Trade Fikresus Amahazion Department of Sociology and Social Work, National College of Arts and Social Sciences, Asmara 12423, Eritrea; Tel.: +291-711-8538; [email protected] Academic Editor: Martin J. Bull Received: 11 August 2016; Accepted: 19 October 2016; Published: 27 October 2016 Abstract: Over the past several decades, over 100 countries have passed legislation banning commercial organ transplantation. What explains this rapid, global diffusion of laws? Based on qualitative data from in-depth interviews, historical analysis, and secondary sources, this paper explores the role played by the medical epistemic community and human rights in the global spread of laws against the organ trade. In addition to shaping, guiding, and influencing norms and approaches to transplantation, the epistemic community has been instrumental in the development of various resolutions, policy initiatives, recommended practices, statements, legislation, and model laws. Moreover, the epistemic community helped position the organ trade as an issue of societal and global importance, and it persistently encouraged states to undertake actions, such as implementing legislation, to combat the organ trade. Critically, the epistemic community’s efforts against the organ trade incorporated the concepts of human rights, integrity, and dignity, which had diffused globally and become institutionalized in the period after WWII. Keywords: world culture; human rights; organ trafficking; policy diffusion; epistemic communities; law; policy 1. Introduction Transplantation, the process of replacing failing organs in one individual with healthy organs from another, is “hailed as one of the great miracles of modern science” ([1], p.

Danella, 1 Dawn Danella Dr. Jalalzai Writing 100 7 April 2013 Night Doctors: Exhuming the Truth The curious case of night doctors in the American South was born of over-eager medical professionals seeking bodies for their use in study and practice as well as Ku Klux Klan terrorism. There are some that say that the “night doctors” are a myth belonging solely to black folklore, a story used to frighten and manipulate. There is no doubt that is indeed what the lore achieved but the night doctors, aka “sack-em-up boys” aka “resurrectionists” aka night riders, did indeed live in more than just whispered stories. The night doctors were a real force that made a lasting impression on history and the repercussions of their horror story can still be felt in African American communities today. In this paper, I will delve into a journey through history, both near and far, of multiple genres in order to exhume the true chronicle of night doctors.
