Abstract
This study examines the forensic analysis of a staged vehicle accident, which was ultimately determined to be a case of premeditated murder. Using descriptive and exploratory case study methodology, the research reconstructs the sequence of events using physical evidence, digital forensics and medico-legal analysis. Data was collected from the crime scene, forensic laboratory reports and digital sources including call detail records (CDRs) and mobile tracking. The findings revealed clear signs of manipulation: the victim was dragged and trampled multiple times by a Mahindra Bolero vehicle in an attempt to stage an accident, followed by a fatal blow with a stone. Evidence including blood-stained material, torn clothes and vehicle marks were carefully documented and analyzed. The study concludes that forensic science, through systematic reconstruction and interdisciplinary methods, plays a vital role in detecting and exposing deceptive practices in staged accidents, thereby aiding in the delivery of justice.
