Background: Snakebite envenomation remains a critical public health concern in India, with its substantialmorbidity and mortality burden. Addressing this issue is imperative, as snakebite-related deaths are preventableand yet disproportionately affect vulnerable populations in rural India.Materials and Methods: This autopsy-based study aimed to assess the prevalence and characteristics of lethalsnakebite cases in the Guntur region, Andhra Pradesh by considering case data, autopsy findings and ancillaryinvestigation findings. Additionally, an attempt was made to recommend preventive measures and raise awarenessamong the local population regarding snakebite prevention.Results: Snakebite incidents were more common among males who belonged to the agricultural workforce. Thesebites predominantly occurred during the rainy season and during daylight hours. The majority of victims werefrom rural areas, and the incidence was higher among younger individuals. Most of the bites were localized onthe lower extremities. Additionally, a significant number of victims experienced fatal outcomes within six hoursof envenomation.Conclusion: Snakebite is a highly neglected tropical disease but a preventable one. The Indian government is givingpriority to snakebite venomics, proteomics, and the application of recombinant DNA technology for developingantivenoms, diverging from conventional animal-derived sources. Given the wide-ranging biogeographicdistribution of venom type in venomous snakes, a re-evaluation of the ‘big four’ strategy is being advocated,promoting alternative methods for effective antivenom production.

With the development of science and technology in the legal field, forensic science has contributed vastly to ensurethat justice is administered to those who are affected. DNA Evidence has played an important role in the criminaljustice system over the recent years. DNA findings have often helped to determine the culprits of several cold caseswhere sufficient traditional evidences were not present. Such evidences aid criminal investigations and helps toestablish a link between the crime and the perpetrators. Hence, DNA evidence is crucial to protect victim’s rightsand solve grave crimes like murder, rape, sexual assault etc. Further, DNA evidence is also utilised to exonerateaccused persons in crimes and for the identification of victims in crimes where the body is severally damaged.This article aims to understand DNA evidence, its importance in ensuring Justice and the various legal challengesinvolved in introducing such evidence before court. The research aims to also determine the need to developand amend criminal legislation to include DNA evidence and the need of a DNA database to ensure immediateidentification of criminals.
