The Use of Examination of Questioned Documents

Abstract

This is an age of documents. We depend on them in many of our encounters with the complexities of modern life. They feature in our financial, legal, business, social, and personal affairs. Hardly a day goes by without some document playing a part in the life of every one of us. With their widespread use it is almost axiomatic that analytical methods should he developed to establish facts concerning documents-their source, authenticity, age, or original state.-These ate, the techniques that are to be described in the ensuing paper. In the light of above an attempt will be taken to analyse the problem of questioned documents and tries to suggest reducing such problems.
