Abstract

In this research study, we will look into the mixed profling via Y marker analysis in a sexual assault case. Background: Ascertaining the identifcation of the assailant or victim can be
determined conclusively by DNA profling of the samples found on the crime scene. Tere
are two types of DNA’s, nuclear DNA, and mitochondrial DNA. Generally, mitochondrial
DNA is taken in cases where nuclear DNA cannot be extracted which are mostly present
in hair and bone. Various types of DNA analysis, STR analysis, RFLP, mtDNA analysis, and
Y-fler depending on the case involved. In the cases involving mixed profling, it is Y-fler
profling which is used to fnd out the actual profle to give a report as conclusive evidence.
In this research, we will look at the analysis of mixed profling via Y-fler analysis in a sexual
assault case. Messages: Problem in the cases involving mixed gene analyzer profling that is
two accused involved in a particular crime scene becomes a condition whose admissibility
in the court comes under question. In such cases it is Y-chromosome present on “AMEL”
that is the locus studying for the X- and Y-chromosome signifying the presence or absence
of the criminal under question.
