    This paper discusses how forensic science plays an important role in criminal law through an empirical study using a questionnaire of a forensic expert. It explains that forensic science applies scientific methods and techniques to matters of law to help discover the truth. While no evidence can be considered absolutely best, forensic science provides evidence backed by science, which is considered one of the best forms of evidence in legal proceedings.

    An Empirical Study on Forensic Science

    -Buvanesh Kumar. R
    BA0150010
    This paper extensively deals with how forensic science plays an important role in the field of
    criminal law. This paper is going to be an empirical study with the help of a questionnaire, where
    a forensic expert would be questioned on how a forensic analysis is done and how the process
    would happen. Forensic science can be seen as a study and application of science to matters of
    law. This connection of science and law provides new ways and methods for discovering the
    reality. The word “forensic” is derived from the Latin word “forensis” which means forum, a
    public place where, in Roman times, senators and others debated and held judicial proceedings.1
    However in the law of evidence, nothing can be termed as the best evidence. So one wouldn’t
    term this as the best form of evidence, but by far in the field of law of evidence, this can be
    considered to be one of the best because the evidence here is backed up by science. Forensic
    science refers to the application of scientific methods, procedures, and techniques “directed to
    the recognition, identification, individualization, and evaluation of physical evidence by the
    application of the natural sciences to law-science matters” 2
