The forensic science helps in restructuring and reconstruction of all the events happened at the crime scene. Although those events are not eye witnessed by the investigators, but certain elements help the forensic expert and crime scene investigator to link the ends of the broken pieces of evidence and reconstruct a story.

The article suggests that the crime scene investigation needs proper, accurate and attentive operation, documentation of crime scene, and collection of evidence.
