FOREWORD

It is a matter of immense pleasure to bring out the 22nd edition of ‘Finger Prints in India’ for the year 2018. The publication of Finger Prints in India commenced in the year 1997.

The publication contains details of the important cases solved by the Central Finger Print Bureau (CFPB) as well as State Finger Print Bureaux (SFPBx) based on Finger Print science. The revised publication has in-depth information under crime specific heads and sub-heads. The publication also carries information on transaction activities of SFPBx, including visits to different scene of crimes, number of chance prints developed, document cases examined, experts opinion given in Courts of Law etc. It is a matter of satisfaction to note that the Finger Print staff of various State/UT Bureaux visited 36,627 scenes of crimes (SOC) and developed chance prints in 16,715 cases. In these cases, 40,111 chance prints were found fit for comparison. The Bureaux also examined and gave opinion on 136 document cases.

NCRB entered an agreement with M/S Smart Chip for installation and commissioning of National Automated Fingerprint Identification System (NAFIS). It is implemented on the principle of cloud computing model where Finger Print slips enrolled at the districts are stored in an exclusive space allocated for that State/UT. Authorized users from State/UTs can edit/modify/update the Finger Print data stored in the exclusive space and other state users can only search the slips for Finger Print matching. If adequate staff is not available at districts then Finger Print slips can be digitized at the SFPB. Chance prints developed from the Scene of Crime and the Finger Prints of the arrested persons can be searched against the State/Central Data base from the workstation installed at SFPB/districts. The implementation of NAFIS will greatly reduce the time and efforts as there will be no need to send the physical Finger Print slips to SFPB/CFPB and the IO would be able to get the results online instantly. A mobile app is also being rolled out as a part of NAFIS which will enable the police personnel posted at check posts to verify the antecedents of suspects without taking them to the police stations.

NCRB is also making efforts for amendments in the Identification of Prisoners Act 1920, so as to empower police officers/FP experts to capture advance biometrics of arrested persons as well by removing mandatory one year rigorous imprisonment clause for taking finger prints. Further, the XIX All India Conference of Directors of Finger Print Bureaux of States/UTs was organized on 21st and 22nd June 2018 at MCR-HRD Institute, Hyderabad, Telangana. A total of 98 delegates from various Finger Print Bureaux of the States/UTs, CFSL-CBI, CFPB/NCRB, Colleges and Universities participated in this two day event and deliberated on important issues related to Finger Prints.

In order to have a streamlined operation/work flow in Finger Print Bureaux, NCRB has taken a call to get them accredited by NABL (National Accreditation Board for Testing and Calibration Laboratories), as per a decision point in Directors’ (Finger Print Bureaux) Conference.

I take this opportunity to compliment Central Finger Print Bureau team for their efforts in revising input collection proforma and brining out this publication. I am sure that the present edition of this annual report will be found useful by all stake holders. Suggestions, if any, are welcome.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

‘Finger Prints in India 2018’ is the 22nd edition of annual publication of Central Finger Print Bureau (CFPB) under the aegis of National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB). It presents the annual performance report for the calendar year 2018, of the Central and State/UT Finger Print Bureaux (SFPBx), including the activities, achievements, database status, trainings undertaken etc. It also presents other useful information such as relevant laws, equipment and relevant books, all at a glance, enabling the Finger print experts, readers and the stakeholders throughout the country to equip themselves with the latest developments in the field. Chapter I - ACTIVITIES OF CENTRAL FINGER PRINT BUREAU

In the year 2018, CFPB was able to examine and send opinion/report in 136 document cases received from Nationalized Banks, Recruitment Agencies, Insurance companies, and 529 chance prints received from various State/UT Finger Print Bureaux. The Bureau has been able to achieve a search slip trace percentage of 11.23. The bureau organized the XIX All India Conference of Directors of Finger Print Bureaux on 21-22 June, 2018 at MCR-HRD Institute, Hyderabad, Telangana with a participation of 98 delegates. CFPB has conducted the All India Board Examination for Finger Print Experts (AIBE) 2018, during February 2-5, 2019, for Finger Print personnel from States/UTs. In AIBE 2018, 112 eligible nominations were received, out of which 104 candidates appeared for the examination and 94 candidates passed, making the passing percentage of AIBE 2018 as 90.4%. The first position was bagged by Sh. Rejani Raj V R, Finger Print Searcher from Kerala.

The process of procuring long awaited National Automated Fingerprint Identification System (NAFIS) has started. The Request For Proposal (RFP) prepared by CFPB experts for NAFIS has been approved by MHA and a global tender has been floated to procure world class NAFIS for Indian Police. NAFIS aims to function as the central repository of all crime and criminal finger print data available in all States/UTs, and facilitate a national level searchable finger print information repository.

A detailed proposal along with comprehensive justification to amend the existing Identification of Prisoners Act 1920 (IPA) was sent to MHA for approval by CFPB/NCRB in the month of July 2018. Meetings were held at MHA and opinion of the Ministry of Law has been taken. The Act, if amended, would include more number of finger prints of arrestees/convicts leading to a significant increase in the national database. The key amendments proposed were: Change of the title to ‘Identification of Arrested and Suspected Persons’ Act; inclusion of biometrics such as Palm Impressions, Voice samples, Iris Scan, DNA typing etc.; removal of mandatory 1 year rigorous imprisonment clause; powers for Magistrate to order for taking measurements of Juveniles.

The National Accreditation Board for Testing and Calibration Laboratories (NABL) is an autonomous body under the guidance of the Dept. Of Science & Technology, Govt. of India whose purpose is to provide accreditation to testing and calibration of clinical laboratories in the country. In order to have a streamlined operation/work flow in Finger Print Bureaux, NCRB has taken a call to get accredited by the agency as per a decision point in Directors’ (Finger Print Bureaux) Conference 2018.

1. Procurement of National Automated Finger print Identification System (NAFIS)

Currently installed Automated Finger Print Identification System called FACTS 5.0 has become obsolete and its supplier has advised CFPB to replace it with latest system called FACTS7.0 Actually, FACTS 5.0 was designed for capacity of one million FP slips and we have crossed that limit. When CCTNS was conceptualized in 2011, M/s PWC was engaged as consultant for preparation of RFP to procure National Automated Finger Print Identification System (NAFIS). However, MHA dropped that plan with an intention to use Aadhaar system. Since, Unique Identification Authority of India (UIDAI) has denied sharing their data with other agencies, NCRB has requested MHA to accord an approval for procurement of NAFIS and in-principle approval was given on 25.08.2017. NCRB officers prepared RFP document without engaging any Consultant. Highly cost effective architecture is proposed by which States need not have to procure their own AFIS. Even the States, who have recently procured latest AFIS, can utilize their investment because their data can be replicated to centre. NAFIS aims to function

Page 6 Finger Prints in India 2018 Central Finger Print Bureau, National Crime Records Bureau as the central repository of all crime and criminal finger print data in the country. NAFIS and CCTNS are proposed to be integrated, so that Finger Print Expert need not have to enter the demographic details of the criminal because they will be coming from CCTNS. Regular Criminal Number (RCN) maintained in NAFIS will be shared with CCTNS so that uniqueness of a criminal can be established. NAFIS would also be capable of complete integration with other biometric systems such as Iris, Facial Image Recognition etc. IFD/MHA examined the RFP and gave an approval for floating the NAFIS tender. An open tender inviting global bid was floated on 17/11/2018. IDEMIA has been awarded the tender and process of NAFIS installation is on.

2. Amendments in Identification of Prisoners Act 1920

At the time of creation of NCRB in 1986, mandate was given to NCRB to amend a very old ACT “Identification of Prisoners Act 1920” dealing with taking and recording measurements etc. of certain categories of persons. The Act is almost 100 years old and in such a long period many scientific, technological, biological and computer advancements led to discoveries and acceptance of many new biometric techniques. Present Act covers only convicts and arrested persons for offence punishable with one year RI or more but many local amendments have been made by different states, and the same Act differs from one state to another therefore uniformities required.

CFPB requested all States/UTs to offer their views about the amendments required in Identifi- cation of Prisoners Act 1920. Representatives of few neighboring states like Haryana, Delhi, and Uttar Pradesh along with BPR&D were invited to NCRB and lots of deliberations were made in this regard. Information about modern biometrics was collected and a detailed proposal was prepared highlighting all the clauses that require amendment.

Chapter-IV ANALYSIS OF FP TRANSACTION ACTIVITIES

Fingerprint science has evolved to be an indispensable part of not only the criminal justice system, but also the governance in countries around the world. Worldwide scientific peer groups are working along in order to utilize the science of fingerprints in as many ways as possible. This chapter deals with the analysis of cumu- lative factors such as conviction rate, population of the states, reasons of discrepancies in the data provided and an inter-comparison of data procured from the State Finger Print Bureaux along with the depiction of major activities such as Record slips, Search slips, Document cases and Chance prints at a glance.

States such as Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh and Gujarat have recorded highest number of arrestee slips those are in Lakhs. Haryana, Delhi and Punjab have also recorded the higher number of slips. The point to be speculated is that some of the other states including Chhattisgarh, Rajasthan, Tamil Nadu, Uttar Pradesh and West Bengal have recorded much lesser number of FP Arrestee slips as compared to their mere size (area wise), population and number of crime incidences. Some of the States/UTs are under the process of maintenance/upgrading their AFIS.

The number of persons arrested and convicted for the offence of Theft is higher than those involved in Robbery, Burglary and Dacoity. In document related offences, more number of persons has been arrested and convicted for forgery rather than counterfeiting. As ‘other IPC’ crime head involves the rest of the IPC sections, it has obviously documented more number of crimes than rest of the crimes combined.

More numbers of persons were arrested under the crime head CrPC/Preventive arrest and Arms/ Explosive act. Ne- glecting the discrepancies in receipt, collection and forwarding of the data mentioned here and assuming

Finger Prints in India 2018 Page 117 Central Finger Print Bureau, National Crime Records Bureau the figures to be the ground reality, Graph 9&10 highlights the fact that the number of persons arrested for a certain crime is always higher than those who get conviction from the court of law. It also endorses the quote that a person remains innocent until proven guilty.

Annexure-I PIONEERS OF FINGER PRINT SCIENCE

There are records of finger prints being taken many centuries ago. Ancient artifacts with carv- ings similar to friction ridge skin have been discovered in many places throughout the world. The ancient Babylonians pressed the tips of their fingertips into clay to record business transactions. Thumbprints were used on clay seals in China to “sign” documents. A petroglyph located on a cliff face in Nova Scotia depicts a hand with exaggerated ridges and finger whorls, presumably left by the Mi’kmaq people.

With the advancement in the field of Identification/ Investigation, many of the Scientists/ Investi- gators worked, whose contributions are listed below:

Dr. NEHEMIAH GREW (1641-1712)

 English Plant Morphologist, Considered as “Father of Plant Anatomy”.  Studied and described the ridges, furrows, and pore structure of friction skin.  Published very accurate drawings of the Finger Printpatterns and areas of the palms.  Did not address uniqueness or permanence of the ridges.

MARCELLO MALPHIGHI (1628-1694)

 First to see the capillaries and was a founder of histology, embryology, plant anatomy, and comparative anatomy.  Used a microscope for the first time to examine friction skin and made observations as to its structure.  Malpighian layer of skin names after him, for his research con- tributions.  Did not address uniqueness or permanence of friction ridges.

Dr. J.C.A. MAYER (1747-1801)

 Authored a book on human anatomy and anatomical illustrations. The book is one of the earliest recordings supporting the uniqueness of fingerprints.  The book included drawings of friction skin and this is still a valid statement ; “Although the arrangements of skin ridges are never duplicated in two persons, nevertheless the similarities are closer among some individuals. In others the differences are marked, yet in spite of their peculiarities

Finger Prints in India 2018 Page 129 Central Finger Print Bureau, National Crime Records Bureau

of arrangement all have certain likeness.” This statement has been verified by all other medical and scientific researcher of friction skin.

Dr. JOHANNES E. PURKINJE (1787–1869)

 At Breslau he created the world’s first Independent Physiol- ogy department and the first official Physiology laboratory.  He discovered the Purkinje effect, Purkinje cells, and Purkinje fibers.  He was the first to give regular classification ofFingerPrint patterns into nine categories which is as follows:

 A:Transverse curves,  F: Spiral,  B:Central longitudinal stria,  G: Ellipse or elliptical whorl,  C: Oblique stria,  H:Circle or circular whorl, and  D: Oblique sinus,  I: Double whorl  E: Almond

SIR WILLIAM JAMES HERSCHEL (1833-1917)

Annexure-II LAWS RELATING TO FINGER PRINTS IN INDIA

In an endeavor for the betterment of the publication a new chapter on laws relating to Finger Prints has been added from this year, the chapter contains all relevant legal information pertaining to Finger Print Science in India.

Section 45 of the Indian Evidence Act, 1872, as amended by Act V of 1899, defines:

Any other person whose finger prints is ordered to be maintained by the Govt. of India from time to time, subject to the provisions of the Identification of prisoners Act (act XXXIII of 1920).

“When the Court has to form an opinion upon a point of foreign law, or of science or art, or as to identity of handwriting or finger impressions, the opinions upon that point of persons especially skilled in such foreign law, science or art, or in questions as to identify of handwriting or finger impressions are relevant facts. Such persons are called Experts”.

Section 293 of Cr. P.C. states as follows:

1) Any document purporting to be a report under the hand of a Government scientific expert to whom this section applies, upon any matter or thing duly submitted to him for examination or analysis and report in the course of any proceeding under this code may be used as evidence in any inquiry, trial or other proceeding under this code.

2) The Court may, if it thinks fit, summon and examine any such expert as to the subject-matter of his report.

3) Where any such expert is summoned by a Court, and he is unable to attend personally, he may, unless the court has expressly directed him to appear personally, depute any responsible officer working with him to attend the court, if such officer is conversant with the facts of the case and can satisfactorily depose in court on his behalf.

4) This section applies to the following Government Scientific Experts, namely:-

a) Any Chemical Examiner or Assistant Chemical Examiner to Government. b) The Chief Inspector of Explosives. c) The Director, Finger Print Bureau. d) The Director, Haffkine Institute, Bombay. e) The Director of a Central Forensic Science Laboratory or a State / UT Forensic Sci- ence Laboratory. f) The Serologist to the Government.

To ascertain, whether a finger print is that of a person by whom it purports to have been made, the court may direct any person present in the court to record his finger prints for the purpose of enabling the court to compare the finger prints alleged to have been made by such person. When given by

Finger Prints in India 2018 Page 133 Central Finger Print Bureau, National Crime Records Bureau recognized finger print experts, evidence as to the identification of persons by means of finger prints left at the scene of crime, is a fact. Summon from court is received whenever, court requires the services of experts either to prove the identity of the accused person or to give evidence in case in which experts opinion has already been furnished by the Bureau.

LAWS RELATING TO PREPARATION OF RECORD AND SEARCH SLIPS

IMPORTANT COURT VERDICTS ON FINGER PRINT EVIDENCE

1. Supreme Court Ruling Of 1961 : [State of Bombay Vs. Kathikalu Oghad AIR 1961 SC 1808]

A thumb impression of an accused taken by the police in course of investigation which was later on produced at the trial did not amount to testimonial compulsion under Article 20(3) and was not on that account inadmissible. It held that the application of finger prints in the identification of persons does not violate the fundamental rights under Article 20(3) of the constitution. It was further held that to be a witness in its wider sense means giving an oral or written statement but does not amount to exposing a part of the body for the purpose of identification.

2. Supreme Court Ruling Of 1972 : [AIR 1972 SC 975]

“The comparison and identification of finger prints has developed into a science and the results derived there from have reached a stage of exactitude. As long as the report shows that the opinion was based on observations which led to a conclusion, such opinion can be accepted.”

“Unless there is a doubt as to the correctness of the opinion, the report of the examiner may be accepted without examination of the expert.”

3. Supreme Court Ruling of 1978: [Mohanlal Vs. Ajit Singh AIR July1978 SC 1183]

The hon’ble Supreme Court ruled that an opinion based on 8 identical ridge characteristics was fully justified and conformed to the views expressed in scientific books on the subject.

“Nothing substantial has been urged to challenge the opinion of the director of the Finger Print Bureau and all that has been argued is that as there were only 8 points of similarity, there was not enough basis for the expert’s opinion about the identity of finger prints. Reference in this has been made to B.L.Saxena’s ‘Identification of handwriting, disputed documents, finger prints, foot prints and detection of forgeries’ (1968 edition, page 247), Walter R. Scott’s ‘Finger print mechanics’(page 62) and M.K.Mehta’s ‘The identification of thumb impression and the cross examination of finger print experts’ (second edition, page 28). We have gone through these books but they do not really support the argu- ment of the learned counsel for the respondent. While referring to the old practice of looking for a minimum of 12 identical characteristic details, Saxena has admitted that the modern view is that 6 points of similarity are sufficient to establish the identity of finger prints. Walter Scott has stated that as a matter of practice most experts who work with finger prints constantly satisfy themselves as to the identity with 8 or even 6 points.” The larger surface of the fully rolled impression not only allows accurate classifica- tion but it also gives more points for comparison. (For representative purpose only)

4. Supreme Court Ruling of 1979: [Jaspal Singh Vs. State of Punjab AIR 1979 SC 1708]

“The science of Finger print identification is an exact science and does not admit of any mistake or doubt.”

Annexure-III RECOMMENDATIONS OF THE XIX ALL INDIA CONFERENCE FOR DIRECTORS OF FINGER PRINT BUREAUX HELD AT Dr. MCR HRD INSTITUTE OF TELANGANA, HYDERABAD ON 21st AND 22nd JUNE, 2018

The 19th All India Conference of Directors of Finger Prints Bureaux was organized by Telangana State Police under the aegis of National Crime Records Bureau on 21st and 22nd June, 2018 at Dr. MCR HRD Institute of Telangana, Hyderabad. Conference was inaugurated by hon’ble Minister of State (Home) Shri Hansraj Gangaram Ahir and the Chief Guest for valedictory function was hon’ble Telangana State Home Minister Shri Nayani Narashimha Reddy. Fingerprint professionals from NCRB, State Fingerprint Bureaux, Central Police Organizations and Universities have participated in the confer- ence. Summary of recommendations made during this two days conference are:

1. National Automatic Fingerprint Identification System(NAFIS):

(a) Architecture: NCRB presented the proposed architecture of National Automatic Fin- gerprint Identification System (NAFIS) and the future roadmap for its procurement. Provision will be given for States to search chance prints, arrestee prints in their own database or selected States database or entire country. It is also clarified that policeman at NAKA or check post can make national level search from NAFIS through mobile app. FED’s will be provided to all Police stations in the second phase. CCTNS Net- work will be used to access NAFIS and with a provision to access from open internet also.

(b) Integration: It was informed that NAFIS will be integrated at central level (CCTNS- CAS-Centre) as well as each State Level (CCTNS-CAS-State) using web service.

(c) Advanced States: However, advanced States like Maharashtra, Telangana, Andhra Pradesh will continue to use their own AFIS and their data will be replicated into NAFIS.

(d) Digitization: Data available in NIST format with the States will be migrated into NAFIS by the System Integrator. However, States should digitize remaining FP slips in NIST complaint format so that same can also be migrated into NAFIS.

(NCRB/States/UTs)

2. NABL accreditation & BEST SFPB:

(a) Accreditation improves the quality and technical competence and efficiency of the Insti- tution. In order to achieve this objective, it was proposed that all Laboratories of finger- prints in the country should acquire a NABL accreditation to make FPBx, standardized and quality compliant. Therefore, it was proposed to layout criteria and decides bench- marks for FPBx enabling them to get NABL accreditation.

(b) Thereafter, FPBx will be assessed on the basis of their performance and rewarded. A Committee is proposed to be constituted under the chairmanship of Joint Director

Finger Prints in India 2018 Page 137 Central Finger Print Bureau, National Crime Records Bureau

(CCTNS) with members from Rajasthan (Shri Pankaj Choudhary, SSP), Himachal Pradesh (Shri Arun Sharma, Director), Punjab (Shri Hardeep Singh, Director), West Bengal (Shri Debashish Ghosh, Director), Tamil Nadu (Shri Krishnamurthy G, DSP), Delhi (Shri R K Rohella, Inspector) and NCRB (Smt S Indira Sudha, DSP) to suggest guidelines for accreditation and to work out the parameters for choosing best Finger- print Bureaux every year and to reward during the conference. Committee will submit its report by 30-09-2018.

(Committee/NCRB)

3. Medals for scientific community:

Director, NCRB spoke about the increasing role played by scientific community in policing and proposed that annual medals may be instituted for various technical disciplines such as Finger print science, Information Technology, FSL and Police wireless. While addressing the gathering during the inaugural function, Minister of State (Home) also expressed that it is a good idea and asked NCRB to submit a detailed proposal to MHA for instituting such medal.

(NCRB/MHA)

4. Manpower for Fingerprint Bureau:

Conference deliberated about the kind of manpower available in each State Fingerprint Bureau and their hierarchy. It was felt that designations like FP searcher, FP test Inspector, Sub Inspector (FP) followed in different States is creating confusion and it is better to have uniform designations across the country. The recommendation of the earlier committee headed by Shri Sumit Sharan, IPS, IGP Tamil Nadu was discussed and delegates expressed that guidelines from center are necessary for brining uniformity. Conference recommended to constitute another committee for studying the existing Finger- print staffing pattern in various States and to recommend an ideal structure. This committee will submit its report in 2 months and the members volunteered to work are Uttar Pradesh (Shri Anil Kumar Singh, IPS, SP), Bihar (Mrs. Anjana Kumari, Director), Telangana (Shri Prabhakar Rao, Director), Maharashtra ( Shri R B Kulkarni, Director, Pune), Delhi ( Shri R K Vajpayee, Director), Karnataka ( Shri Mahabaleshwar Hedge, Director) , Madhya Pradesh (Mrs. Nidhi Srivatasava Inspector) and NCRB (Shri S. P. Singh and Smt Indira Sudha, DSP). Committee will be headed by Joint Director (CCTNS), NCRB. Committee will submit its report by 30-09-2018.

(Committee/NCRB)

5. Modernization of State FPBx:

(a) Presentation was made by the member of the committee constituted under the chair- manship of Shri Sumit Sharan IPS, IGP Tamilnadu. It was informed that State Govern- ments have not allotted funds in many States for purchase of modern equipment and FP experts are using the equipment which was supposed to be condemned long back. Committee has identified certain items which are essential for each State Fingerprint Bureau. Conference felt that all state FPBx must procure these items.

Page 138 Finger Prints in India 2018 Central Finger Print Bureau, National Crime Records Bureau

(b) It was recommended that NCRB may take up this issue with MHA for providing funds to procure the equipment identified by the committee under Police Modernization scheme and also for sanction of certain amount every year towards replacement of obsolete equipment and to introduce modern equipment that helps to improve the efficiency of FP Experts.

(c) Conference discussed about the merits in procurement of material through Government Electronic Marketplace (GEM). It was unanimously recommended that NCRB should work out the specifications for the commonly used items and share with GEM for inclu- sion in their list.

(NCRB/MHA)

6. Legal Matters:

(a) Identification of Prisoners Act, 1920:

NCRB made a detailed presentation about the amendments required in Identification of Prisoners Act, 1920 as requested by MHA. Delegates suggested including hand geom- etry and veining pattern also under ‘measurements’. Conference also felt that enough safe guards must be built in for stopping misuse of any provisions in the Act.

A number of delegates were of the view that fingerprints of the suspects taken for the purpose of search should be stored in a separate database instead of keeping them with convict database. It was also suggested that separate center rules should be notified in this regard.

(b) Usage of Aadhaar database:

Director, NCRB, in his welcome address stated that about 45,000 unidentified dead bodies are reported across the country every year and many bodies are found in a condition that faces offer no clue with regards to their identification. He also stated that all the chance prints developed at the scene of crime are not being matched since about 80% to 85% criminals are first time offenders. He informed that if limited access is given to Aadhaar database, then it is possible to solve several cases where first time offenders have committed crime which will make the society more secure. Moreover, several unidentified bodies can be handed over to their relatives for graceful disposal as enrol- ment in Aadhaar is almost complete. Conference recommended that NCRB should take up this issue with the Government for amendment of Aadhaar Act, so that limited access to Aadhaar database may be given to Law enforcing agencies.

(NCRB)

Finger Prints in India 2018 Page 139 Central Finger Print Bureau, National Crime Records Bureau

7. Standardization:

(a) Revision of CFPB Manual:

Conference discussed about the need for revision of Central Fingerprint Bureau Manual. Delegates from Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Punjab, Rajasthan, Maharashtra, and Tamilnadu informed that they have state FPB manuals. It was decided to collect all these State manuals and to revise CFPB manual. A committee has been proposed in this regard with Shri A Mohan Krishna DD (C-III) as chairman and members from Jharkhand ( Shri Neeruj Sahay, Director), Bihar ( Shri Ashutosh Kumar, DSP), Delhi ( Shri N K Vadhera, Inspector), Maharashtra ( Shri Prasad Joshi, API), and CFPB ( Shri B. Roy Director I/c CFPB, Shri S. P. Singh DSP, Smt Indira Sudha DSP, Shri R R Sharma, Inspector). Committee will submit its report by 20-09-2018.

(Committee/NCRB)

(b) National Criminal Number (NCN):

It was felt that there is no unique identifier for the same criminal if he commits crime in different States, as Regular Criminal Number (RCN) allotted to the same criminal is not unique in different states, since each state allots different RCN. Therefore it is proposed to allot National Criminal Number (NCN) by NCRB so that it works as unique identifier. As a part of CCTNS integration, this NCN will be shared with CCTNS so that it can maintain unique identity for criminal.

(NCRB)

(c) Standard format to be designed for opinion of FP experts:

Delegates from Rajasthan expressed that opinion given in different formats by different FPBx is giving room for cross examination by defense counsels which sometimes dimin- ishes the value of FP expert and the evidence. Therefore, the conference unanimously recommended that NCRB may propose a standard format for furnishing the opinion of FP experts in the court of law.

(NCRB)

(d) AIBE:

Decision about the previous conference recommendation of making Science graduate as compulsory qualification to appear for AIBE was discussed and NCRB clarified that non-science graduates were not permitted to appear for AIBE exam. For a question about non-science graduates already in service, it was clarified that they will be allowed if concerned State gives an undertaking that future recruitments are exclusively science graduates.

(NCRB/States/UTs)

Page 140 Finger Prints in India 2018 Central Finger Print Bureau, National Crime Records Bureau

8. Capacity Building:

(a) New techniques for FP development:

Retiring Directors of State FPBx, Award Winners of fingerprint competition and Re- search scholars have described various techniques for fingerprint development. Con- ference resolved that Fingerprint Experts should keep abreast of latest easy and cost effective powders and other techniques for FP development and to adopt them.

(States/UTs)

(b) New multi modal biometrics:

The Conference recommended that with the advent of technological advances in the field of personal identification, the role of a FP expert has to be extended to cover the other biometrics such as Voice Samples, Vein Pattern, Hand Geometry, Earlobe Geom- etry, Iris and Retina Scan, Photographs, Palm Impression, Foot Print Impression as well. FP experts should look forward to learn the technicalities of the upcoming multi modal biometric systems to stay updating in this progressive field.

(NCRB/States/UTs)

(c) Collaboration with universities/ research organizations:

People associated with various law enforcement agencies are often unaware of the lat- est advancements in the field of FP science. It was felt that collaboration with universi- ties/ research organizations would be beneficial for FP personnel to be aware of such technological advancements. Therefore, all State FPBX and NCRB were requested to have tie ups or MOUs for the interaction with Universities/Institutions.

(NCRB/States/UTs)

(d) Training in foreign Countries:

In order to equip our fingerprint experts at par with the international standards and knowledge, the conference recommended that Fingerprint personnel need to be sent for training in foreign institutions so as to make them aware of the latest practices in the field of fingerprint science. It was proposed that NCRB should identify and coordinate with such institutions and take MHAs approval for the same.

(NCRB/MHA)

(e) Training in the State Fingerprint Bureaux for capacity building:

Fingerprint experts, already scarce in most of the state bureau, are not able to visit all crime scenes and train the newly recruited staff. Uttar Pradesh informed that most of their Fingerprint experts are retired and they do not have FP experts even to conduct

Finger Prints in India 2018 Page 141 Central Finger Print Bureau, National Crime Records Bureau

trainings. In such cases, Director, NCRB suggested that the states may initiate action for engaging retired persons on contractual basis so that they can train the newly re- cruited staff as well as visit crime scenes. It was also informed that NCRB fingerprint experts can be deputed to State FPBX for conducting Fingerprint related trainings.

(NCRB/States/UTs)

(f) Journal on Fingerprint Science:

Participants from Universities suggested that CFPB should start a journal on Fingerprint Science as there is no journal exclusively for fingerprint science published in India. Peri- odicity of the journal was discussed and it was decided to have 2 issues per year. All States/UTs and academicians are requested to contribute meaningful articles/write-ups for this journal.

(NCRB/States/UTs)

9. Administration related matters:

(a) Director of FPB should be a FP expert:

The Conference deliberated as whether Fingerprint Bureau should be headed by only FP expert or not. Several participants expressed that Director with FP expertise would be able to make the scientific and technical decisions pertaining to the bureau in an efficient manner. It is decided that committee proposed to work on manpower issues will look into this matter.

(Committee/NCRB)

(b) CFPB Nodal Officers:

Tamil Nadu informed that States are seeking lot of assistance from CFPB with regard to search slips and chance prints for which one Nodal Officer should be designated from CFPB. It was also informed that such arrangement will assist CFPB because desig- nated Nodal Officer can verify the receipt of search and record slips from those States. Director, NCRB informed that such sort of arrangement already exists for CCTNS and same pattern will be implemented for Fingerprints also.

(NCRB)

(c) Collection and documentation of Judgment copies of the crucial cases:

The criteria for the citations for the award of excellence have been broadly divided into various categories with variable weightage, of which the conviction, cross examination and the case intensity are a few to name. It is proposed that copies of judgment should be attached with the cases sent for nomination.

(NCRB/States/UTs)

Page 142 Finger Prints in India 2018 Central Finger Print Bureau, National Crime Records Bureau

10. Miscellaneous:

(a) DGs/IGs Conference:

Delegates suggested that there should be a session in the DGs/IGs conference for fin- gerprint related issues such as modernization of State fingerprint Bureaux, filling of va- cancies. Director NCRB informed that NCRB will certainly make a request to include this item in their agenda.

(NCRB)

(b) Conference Title:

In order to broaden the scope of the conference and also to encourage other institutions carrying out analytical and research work in the field of Finger Print science to partici- pate in the conference, it is decided to rename the conference as “National Conference on Finger Print Science”.

(NCRB/MHA)

(c) Regulating Authority:

Delegates expressed that many private persons are giving opinion in the court as FP Expert and there is no regulating authority for FP Experts like BAR ASSOCIATION for advocates or MCI for doctors etc. The Conference suggested that NCRB may take up with MHA for creating regulating authority for fingerprint experts.

(NCRB/MHA)

(d) Fees for Private/Civil Cases:

Delegates informed that in some States, non-government/private organizations are seeking the services of FP experts for which fees can be prescribed. Conference recommended that NCRB should collect the information from all States/UTs about various types of services that are offered and to work out suitable rate for each type of service.

Annexure– V (a) AUTOMATED FINGER PRINT IDENTIFICATION SYSTEM

Automation of the fingerprinting technology has been the agenda of scientific and industrialist peers in order to provide the law enforcement agencies with the best of the tools and techniques to maintain highest possible decorum of law and order. As there is a need of fast and robust system to handle large number of data and cope up with latest emerging trends in the era of Finger print science, MHA has taken a call to procure latest system for replacement of FACTS in the country. Following are the specifications and work flow of the system.

National Automated Fingerprint Identification System (NAFIS) Overview

The basic process of capture, use and management of fingerprint information in crime and criminal investigation has been defined in the Identification of Prisoners Act, 1920 and its amendments, other State and Central acts and other procedures defined by law.

Based on the provisions of the act, both rolled and plain fingerprints (including palm prints) will be captured from individual involved in crimes through Fingerprint Enrolment Devices (FEDs) or on paper. The FEDs also have relevant embedded software for capture, processing and transmission of fingerprint information for search, matching and verification purposes performed through NAFIS software.

Indicative architecture of NAFIS:

Finger Prints in India 2018 Page 155 Central Finger Print Bureau, National Crime Records Bureau

 The NAFIS software serves as the key application for Fingerprint experts/personnel for performing crime and criminal investigation functions. Fingerprints are generally acquired for crime and criminal investigation captured through enrolment of fingerprints of indi- viduals as per the due process laid down by law, chance fingerprints lifted from the site of incident or scene of crime, fingerprints identification through query from an existing fingerprint database (Developed through Enrolment of fingerprints) only for matching and verification purposes as per due Procedure. Chance/Latent fingerprints are class of fingerprints which are not visible to the naked eye and can be used for verification and matching after suitable enhancements.

 It is to be noted that currently 26 States/UTs have implemented AFIS software supplied by various solution providers and 10 States/UTs are yet to implement AFIS solution. The State Fingerprint Bureau (SFPB) is the nodal organization for collection, storage, operations/transactions and management of Fingerprint related information with respect to crime and criminal investigation and tracking functions.

 The SFPB and its staff at districts and other locations carry out fingerprint related func- tions in police organization.

 Further it is also envisaged that the Fingerprint Enrolment Devices are to be used at Police stations or the Fingerprint reader device integrated with the Mobile Data Termi- nal using the public Internet for accessing the Central NAFIS database.

 The National level NAFIS solution would be implemented and managed by the Central Fingerprint Bureau (CFPB) at NCRB, New Delhi. The National level Automated Fin- gerprint Identification System (NAFIS) shall function as the central information reposi- tory of all the crime and criminal related fingerprint data of the country. The NAFIS solution envisaged shall consolidate all the fingerprint information available at all States/ UTs in AFIS or any other databases for development of a national level searchable fingerprint information repository.

 The NAFIS solution would also integrate with the Core Application Software of CCTNS project implemented at Central level for extracting relevant crime and criminal attribute data mapped to the fingerprints.

 The virtual partition of NAFIS designated for36 States/UTs would also integrate with CCTNS application (Customized and Configured Core Application Software (State) or other similar applications implemented at States/UTs) for mapping of relevant crime and criminal attribute data with fingerprint data for providing descriptions of demo- graphics, reporting and annotation purposes.

AFIS Interface Specification

The Electronic Finger Print Transmission Specification or EFTS defines the interface between the IAFIS and other agencies’ systems. The EFTS contains a description of operational concepts, descriptors, field edit specifications, image quality specifications, and other information related to IAFIS services. The Electronic Biometric Transmission Specification (EBTS) is the latest upgrade to the FBI

Finger Print specification and replaces EFTS Version 7.1. The scope of the EBTS has been expanded over previous versions to include additional biometric modalities (e.g., Palm print, facial, and iris) in recognition of the rapidly developing biometric identification industry. The most recent update to the American National Standards Institute /National Institute of Standards and Technology-Information Technology Laboratory 1-2015(ANSI/NIST-ITL 1-2011, Update: 2015) standard includes new record types to facilitate data sharing for new biometric modalities. Integrating biometric data in accordance with the ANSI/NIST standard, the FBI EBTS provides a description of all requests and responses associated with electronic Finger Print band other biometric identification services.

Finger Prints in India 2018 Page 173 Central Finger Print Bureau, National Crime Records Bureau

Annexure– IX Glossary

 AMPUTATED- The removal of a limb or other body extremity by trauma, prolonged constric- tion or surgery.  ARTIFACT- Any distortion or alteration not in the original friction ridge impression produced by an external agent or action. 2: Any information not present in the original object or image inadvertently introduced by image capture, processing, compressions, transmission, display, or printing. (SWGFAST 2011)  AUTOMATED FINGER PRINT IDENTIFICATION SYSTEM (AFIS)- An automated, minutiae-based identification system that may consist of two or more distinct databases com- prising two-finger identification records and ten-finger latent cognizant records (records of indi- viduals more likely to be found at crime scenes, for example, burglars). 2: A computer-based system for reading, cataloguing, searching, matching, and storing fingerprints and related data. (ANSI/IAI) 3: A generic term for a Finger Print matching, storage, and retrieval system. (SWGFAST 2011)  ACE-V- The process for identifying latent fingerprints, which involves Analysis, Comparison, Evaluation, and Verification: a. Analysis is the qualitative and quantitative assessment of Level 1, Level 2, and Level 3 Details to determine proportion, interrelationship, and value for individualization. b. During Comparison, the latent print examiner looks at the attributes noted during analy- sis for differences and agreement between the latent print and the known exemplar. c. Evaluation follows extensive comparison by making a determination if two impressions were made by the same source, not from the same source, or if the information is incon- clusive. (A determination is made as to the results of the Comparison process. The Finger Print community accepts three conclusions: (a) the latent print and known exem- plar were made by the same source, (b) the latent print and known exemplar were not made by the same source, or (c) a conclusive comparison could not be determined. This could be due to a lack of comparable area in the known exemplar or lack of clarity due to improperly recorded known exemplars.) d. Verification occurs when a second qualified examiner does an independent assessment of the latent print and known exemplar, utilizing the ACE process.  ALGORITHM- Mathematical routine used in computer processing. In AFIS processing, the matcher algorithm searches for relationships between the search print and ten-print. 2: Math- ematical routine used in computer processing, e.g., an AFIS matching algorithm establishes the correlation of Level 2 Detail between fingerprints. (SWGFAST). 3: A step-by-step computa- tional procedure for solving a problem. The system computer and other system components use algorithms to make decisions required to process and handle information. (ANSI/IAI)  ANSI/NIST STANDARD- Standard proposed by NIST and adopted by ANSI. For ex- ample, the ANSI/NIST-ITL standard Data Format for the Interchange of Fingerprint, Facial &

Page 174 Finger Prints in India 2018 Central Finger Print Bureau, National Crime Records Bureau

Other Biometric Information is used by law enforcement, intelligence, military, and homeland security organizations throughout the world. The first version of this standard dates to 1986. Over the years, it has been updated and expanded to cover more biometric modalities beyond the original record type of Finger Print minutiae. (NIST)  BACKGROUND DISTURBANCE / INTERFERENCE- A feature of the background (such as the texture or pattern) of the substrate (surface) that the mark is left on, which affects the appearance and resultant interpretation of the friction ridge flow or ridge details.  CADAVER- A deceased person.  CHANCE PRINT OR SCENE OF CRIME PRINT- means any chance or accidental im- pression left by friction ridges skin on a surface, regardless of whether it is visible or invisible at the time of deposition.  DISPATCH CHEQUE- The details in triplicate prepared by the State Bureaux containing Name, Parentage of the convicts and Cheque No., Date and District of Origin of Finger Print Record Slips for forwarding the Finger Print Record Slips to other Bureaux are called Dispatch Cheques /Invoice.  DATABASES- Collections of data and associated material designed to provide information rather than for archive, which are stored systematically in hard copy or electronic format and are, e.g. used for: providing information on the possible origin of objects or substances found in casework; and/or providing statistical information.  EDGEOSCOPY- Study of the contour or shape of the edges of friction ridges.  EXPERT (CFPB)- ‘Expert’ means an officer working in the CFPB having undergone thorough training in classifying, recording & searching of F.P. Slips and examining of latent and documen- tary prints either in any State Bureau or at the Central Finger Print Bureau and having a Finger Print expert certificate by clearing the All India Board for Examination of Finger Print Experts.  EXEMPLAR- An impression or image of friction ridge skin purposely collected with the knowl- edge of the subject. 2: The prints of an individual associated with a known or claimed identity deliberately recorded electronically, by ink, or by another medium (also known as known prints). (SWGFAST 2011)  ELIMINATION FINGER PRINTS 1- Finger Print images taken from persons with legiti- mate access to evidence under examination for latent fingerprint. 2: Exemplars of friction ridge skin detail of persons known to have had legitimate access to an object or location.  GRAY-SCALE IMAGE -An image using more than two radiometric values, i.e., 256 shades of gray in an 8-bit image. Not a strictly black/white image.  HENRY CLASSIFICATION- an alphanumeric system of Finger Print classification named after Sir Edward Richard Henry used for filing, searching, and retrieving ten-print records.  FINGER PRINT SLIP FOR RECORD- The form containing 10-digit rolled impressions and plain prints taken in proper sequence for record with particulars regarding name, parentage, residence, conviction, etc. of a convict is called a Finger Print Slip for record.

Finger Prints in India 2018 Page 175 Central Finger Print Bureau, National Crime Records Bureau
