These aspects include transformation in the subject of labour, in its requirements with respect to content and in its intended objects and purposes. Among these aspects, a transformation in intended objects and purposes may be the core solution to the rights conflict, given that China has not ratified all of its international human rights treaties and that prohibition of forced labour is uncertain to be an international customary norm. Thus, the transformation of labour rights could be developed thorough labour reforms involving the Constitution, criminal law and justice or labour rights in China to solve the rights conflict, of which those in the Constitution is at the core of such transformation as follows:","PeriodicalId":284029,"journal":{"name":"Foresic Research & Criminology International Journal","volume":"71 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-04-23","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"128641341","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Among different crimes, the rape and murder are very heinous. Both are unrelated crimes coming under different major heads prescribing stringent punishment under different sections of IPC. As per National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB) report, 30,450murder cases and 38,947rape cases were registered in the year 2016.1 Both the crimes were committed by different psychological mechanism and behavioral activities. The study reveals that rape cases are reported due to sexual intimacy and in more than 90% cases victims are known to their assailants either friend, relative or neighbor and the rest 10% are stranger.2 But sexual homicide (rape-murder) is comparatively less and statistical data is also not available in literature.3 In sexual-homicide cases, the behavior of the accused is observed to be different than normal sexual offenders.4 The rape followed with murder is heinous and committed with aggressive behavior under different situations of the offender resulting death of victim. In such case, physical examination of the victim should be done from head-to-toe conducting with genitoranal area to establish the profile of the criminal.

It depends on the appropriate treatment of the traces found in crime scenes, helping to elucidate the materiality, authorship and dynamics of a crime. It is necessary to recognize the importance of the expertise as a fundamental factor to carry out intelligent and professional investigations, which result in the identification of criminals and in the production of proves.1 There are a number of cases where crimes involve animals, parts of animals, products and by-products of the animal industry, which require the assistance of a veterinarian for the proper examination of the traces. Examples include crimes against wildlife, such as animal abuse, illegal hunting and illegal trade of animals, fraud in animal products and veterinary medicines, crimes against public health and environmental crimes. In addition to these cases, there are many others that require the performance of a veterinary professional, either by private competence or in collaboration with professionals from other areas, such as biologists, chemists, engineers, etc. Animals have relevance to crime scene investigation without necessarily being the main object of the crime, but associated in an indirect manner, in also other situations.

Insight of cases, it becomes to determine the cause of death on the spot due to burning and the presence of soot.

Thus, liberalization of Russian criminal Law taking place under the flag of humanization has real contrast with increase in crime and worsening of its structure.1 But it doesn’t involve with a law-makers lobby’s orientation, corrupted enforcement branches only.

Shukla","doi":"10.15406/frcij.2019.07.00265","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.15406/frcij.2019.07.00265","url":null,"abstract":"In many instances, several types of evidences are recovered in distinct forms or contaminated with any other types of valuable evidences. For forensic investigation purpose, all these evidences have their potential values and often provide link between the victim and accused/suspect. In case of murder, sexual assault or hit and run cases, a few blood drops are frequently recovered from the scene of occurrence. The forensic biologist helps the investigation agencies in the collection of the evidences from the spot of incidence and analysis of the same in the laboratory. Police submit the evidential samples in the Forensic laboratory with a query of DNA analysis, for cases like murder, attempt to murder, rape, concealment of identity of individual/fragmented body parts or where body is transferred after murder from one place to another. In outdoor crimes such as rape/ sexual assault, biological materials transfer from victim to accused/ culprit or vice versa and to the surroundings.1 The place of offence must be fixed by the investigation agencies.2 Therefore, traces of blood droplets found at crime scene should be processed for DNA profiling. But due to the traced quantity, such samples get consumed in presumptive blood tests, such as Benzidine test and usually not considered for DNA analysis. In few cases where the blood is washed off from the crime scene/surface, it becomes one of the most crucial problems faced in forensic examination of the criminal cases to detect the blood spot. The surfaces are examined for the presence of blood (a necessity) by use of benzidine or phenolphthalein test. The crucial facet is faced when the blood samples are transferred on clothes in very less quantity. Then, it can be directly tested with benzidine that is competent enough to generate complete DNA profiles. BENZIDINE is a greyish-yellow to greyish -red, crystalline solid. It is toxic by ingestion, inhalation, and skin absorption. Combustion produces toxic oxides of nitrogen. Benzidine molecular weight 184.242g/mol, an aromatic diamine widely used in industrial processes, that’s why, it is used to prepare other chemicals at few instances, it is used for biological analysis. It is also a powerful carcinogen in many animal species. Some presumptive tests have been described for blood stains recognition,3 one of the most commonly used tests is Benzidine and its derivative Tetramethylbenzidine (TMB).4 It has been observed that the administration of benzidine has been shown to produce tumours in liver, hamster liver, and other tissues of exposed animals.5 In most cases to ingestion or inhalation of benzidine workers in the industry suffered a tremendously increased risk of bladder cancer.6 Many investigators have studied the mutagenicity of benzidine and their substitute in short-term tests such as the Ames test.","PeriodicalId":284029,"journal":{"name":"Foresic Research & Criminology International Journal","volume":"75 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-03-15","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126284009","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
