Delhi Police Use Gait Analysis in UPSC Aspirant Murder Case

Delhi Police Use Gait Analysis in UPSC Aspirant Murder Case

Imagine trying to guess who someone is just by how they walk, even if you can't see their face!

That's kind of what 'gait analysis' is.

In a sad case where a young man was murdered and then his room caught fire, the police have pictures of people entering and leaving his home.

Because their faces are hidden, the police want to use this special 'gait analysis' to compare how these people walk with how the suspects walk.

This is a scientific way to study a person's unique way of moving.

It helps the police make their case stronger in court, especially when other evidence might be missing.

This technique is rare but has been used before in other important cases in India.
