Court allows forensic test of Unnao survivor's voice sample

NEW DELHI: A Delhi court on Tuesday allowed forensic examination of the Unnao rape survivor’s voice sample in a case relating to her alleged gang rape in June 2017, a week after she was raped by former BJP MLA Kuldeep Sengar.The order was passed on an application moved by the counsel for one of the accused, Shubham Singh.According to the defence counsel, the woman “denied” that the voice in certain recorded conversations belonged to her, even though those recordings were being relied upon during the trial.The defence has argued that these disputed recordings allegedly contain statements in which she admits “she had left her house voluntarily”, which could be “crucial objective evidence”.Taking note of the submission, special judge Murari Prasad Singh directed the voice sample be sent to CFSL for comparison with audio and video recordings already part of the case record. The judge clarified the forensic exam was being permitted only to aid the adjudicatory process, and evidentiary value of the forensic report would be examined and assessed at an appropriate stage.
