New Delhi, July 15: Investigators may soon get clearer portraits of accused persons or suspects to aid them in probe.
The Home Ministry is evaluating a beta version of a new software for developing clearer and better portraits of suspects or accused persons than the staid black and white versions during investigation.
The sofware has been developed by Dharamsinh Desai Institute of Technology at Nadiad in Gujarat, an MHA report said.
A beta version of the software, development of which had been delayed by at least three years, was handed over to the Home Ministry earlier this year.
The Colour Portrait Building System, a project of the National Crime Research Bureau, involves an expenditure of Rs 35.40 lakh, including a hardware component of Rs nine lakh.
