Considering the development of the methods and means of committing crimes, access to the accused became difficult. the reason of this is the lack of scientific tools to keep pace with the means used by the perpetrators, and therefore the society must use the same weapon used by the perpetrator which is the weapon of science and the development of modern scientific means aimed at detecting crimes and facilitate Prove it. Scientific evidence is a means of finding the link between crime and its perpetrator.
