Assessing the Relationship between Foot Dimensions and Body Weight among Young Generation of Central India | Chapter 10 | Advancement and New Understanding in Medical Science Vol. 5

The aim of the study is to study the relationship of foot dimensions with body weight. Overweight and obesity are increasing in prevalence. However, despite reports of poor foot health, the influence of obesity and overweight on adult foot morphology has received limited attention. A vital part of forensic inquiry is using scientific methods to identify a human being. The human foot has been examined in many ways by anatomists, forensic scientists, anthropologists, medical professionals, podiatrists, and several other organizations all over the world. People often go barefoot in developing nations like India for a variety of reasons, including spiritual or religious convictions, participation in sociocultural activities, weather conditions, living in rural regions, and socioeconomic considerations. This makes foot impressions for forensic inquiry more significant. The findings of earlier investigations carried out in Central India were inconsequential. Thus, a large sample size and a variety of characteristics were used in this study, which sought to create a database suitable for forensic inquiry. This cross-sectional study was conducted amongst 1000 participants (500 male and 500 female) of ESIC Institute Gulbarga over a period of 14 months. Foot length, foot breadth along with body weight was measured. Mean weight (male) was 58.21 kg and female was 50.14 kg. Statistically significant correlation was observed between body weight and foot dimensions of both sides in both sexes. Correlation coefficient ‘r’ and Linear regression equation was calculated. In both sexes, there was a statistically significant association between body weight and foot measurements on both sides. Forensic investigations and anthropometric studies might benefit from this data.

Conceptualizing an Ideal Policing Model: Strategies for South African Police | Chapter 6 | Recent Research Advances in Arts and Social Studies Vol. 3

This branch conceptualize a perfect policing model and corruption-fighting tactics for the South African-american police aid. Controlling crime is the lawman's primary goal.  top arrangement since 1996 when the National Felony Prevention Strategy (NCPS) of 1996 was started. This strategy is established a fundamentally new approach by government that is both a multi-agency and multi-body initiative. In particular, it demands the development of wider blame for crime stop and a shift in emphasis from reactive “misconduct control” which deploys most resources towards replying after crimes have before been committed, towards full of enthusiasm "crime stop" which is aimed at forbiding crime from occurring. All generally supports professional crime fighting as the basic policing technique cause it represents a forceful dedication to this goal. Added recommended strategies, aforementioned community policing or logical, seem to be concealing the main point. These hopeful undesirable alternatives if they raised the risk of criminal victimization in the community. But when evaluating the value of alternative police strategies in crime control, individual must look beyond words or just declared assurance to the cause; one must look for showed effectiveness in achieving the objective. Contemporary's professional crime-fighting tactics include three primary actions: motorized patrol, prompt emergency reaction, and retroactive crime examination. Over the past few decades, police openness has been improved by joining officers accompanying the public via telephones, radios, and machines as well as by matching policeman schedules and locations to anticipated entails service. The field will know it has a more forceful policing plan possible if they are successful in the next three to five years at two together decreasing major evil and winning over the public's support. The aim of problem-solving and community protect is to base a close, as opposed to a remote, friendship with the community.

An Approach towards Traditional Judicial Systems to Digital Forms of Evidence | Chapter 10 | Technological Innovation in Engineering Research Vol. 5

There were many critics of the present administration's "Digital India" initiative at first. However, with its finger on the pulse of Young, Emerging India, several facilitations were offered with the single purpose of connecting technology with the general public. Thus, even in previously inaccessible locations, smart phones, laptops, and computers are becoming household names. On the other side, however, we also observe a sharp rise in crimes perpetrated online and using computers. Technology is a phenomena that changes constantly. It never stops evolving, modernising, or even renewing itself. Alongside the development of contemporary technology and hi-tech tools and equipment, crime has also increased. A perpetrator can easily plan, carry out, and finish a crime without being physically present at the crime scene thanks to the shift of criminal activity from the physical to the digital realm. This makes it challenging for investigators, law enforcement officials, and traditional legal systems that only consider physical evidence to identify the true perpetrator, establish guilt, and determine the seriousness of punishment. Using a desktop computer, a laptop, or even a smartphone, a criminal may carry out an illegal act while miles away from the scene of the crime, leaving no physical evidence of the crime's commission. They can also take use of web servers, Bluetooth, Wi-Fi, and 4G data transmission rates. In these circumstances, Digital footprints must be used since they are the only means to confirm that an illegal conduct was actually carried out and to find the person who did it. Digital footprints must be given their due in the current judicial system to aid in establishing the execution of an unlawful conduct, identifying the true offender, and calculating the appropriate level of punishment because the IPC's guiding concept is "Innocent until proven guilty." This essay aims to demonstrate the importance of digital footprints and how they are used by the current justice systems to confirm, attest to, and support the commission of an illegal act.
