Four video clippings of the controversial February 9 event in Jawaharlal Nehru University, sent earlier for examination to the Forensic Science Laboratory in Gandhinagar, have been found genuine. As per final reports submitted to the Delhi police’s special cell by the forensic lab, there has been no tampering with the footage of these four videos. However, final report is still awaited on another set of video clips, including the one broadcast by a few TV news channels that were alleged to be doctored. The clips were sent to the CBI’s Central Forensic Science Laboratory for a complete analysis. “We have received a report on four video clips from the Gandhinagar laboratory and they have been described as genuine.
A report on the other clips, being examined at the CFSL, is awaited,” special commissioner of police (special cell) Arvind Deep said on Tuesday. Apart from the one recorded by a camera of a Hindi TV news channel, these video clips, were mostly shot on mobile phones of JNU security guards and other students who were present during the February 9 event during which anti-Indian slogans were allegedly raised. “The central laboratory is also examining the concerned TV news channel’s camera, storage card and wire among other equipment. Their report is expected to arrive in a week,” Mr Deep added. An official privy to the investigation said several persons, who allegedly raised anti-India slogans during the event, have been identified on the basis of the videos reported to be genuine by the Gandhinagar laboratory.
