Abstract

Examination of writings on unconventional or unusual surfaces by unusual writing instruments is one of the challenging areas of document examination. It has its limitations due to non availability of suitable comparable materials in similar terms & conditions. The present case deals with the writing executed on wall by a person in which he mentioned the name of the people responsible for mental agony and stress which led him to commit suicide. Thorough scientific examinations were conducted which started with the processing of crime scene and furnishing a definite conclusion.
