The Sindh High Court directed the relevant authorities on Monday to ensure implementation of modern mechanisms when carrying out DNA testing in rape cases and increase reliance on scientific methods.

What measures have been taken regarding investigation of rape cases and speedy penalisation, asked the court.
In response the police surgeon informed that several suggestions have been taken by the reforms committee for legislation on the matter and effective measures are being undertaken to investigate rape cases using modern techniques.
