Abstract

Finger print is the cheapest and user friendly tool of identification. It’s correlation with blood group is medicolegally important to trace the victim and accused for detection of crime. In this study thumb prints of 100 medical students of GMC, Latur were taken and correlated with their blood groups. In the study blood group B (39%) was the commonest ABO group, Rh + ve (92%) was commonest Rh system. Amongst the finger print patterns- Loops were most common (64%), whorls were second commonest (31%), the study suggests an association between finger print patterns and blood groups. Blood group B showed more Loops (28%) and blood group A (9%) showed more whorls. Our aim is to help investigating agencies by providing a clue in crime detection by fixing probable culprit. We can find out probable blood group of accused if we find chanced finger print and vice-versa.
