Introduction

In India, according to List II, Seventh Schedule of the Constitution of India, 1950 ‘Police’ and ‘Public order’ fall under State List meaning thereby that the State has the power and primary responsibility to legislate for the purpose of detection, investigation, and prevention of crimes. There are various methods used by the police during criminal investigation one being drawing of spot maps.

Furthermore, the State Governments enact its own legislation by way of rules, manuals, statutes and police orders. Every State instructs its police officers for creating spot map through manuals, handbooks and regulations as there is no specific substantive provision for it. According to the Jharkhand Police Manual, the police officers can create the spot map at their discretion, if required and attach it to the case diary. The person making it is required to sign on it and his name is to be added in the list of witnesses. Additionally, the Odisha police issued an order after noticing failure on part of the investigating officers to prepare spot maps elaborately explaining on how to draw the maps so that it can be effectively used in criminal investigations. It is pertinent to note that evidentiary value of spot map is purely hearsay under Section 60 of the Indian Evidence Act, 1872 and cannot be used as evidence in the absence of examination of the person who is alleged to have given information recorded in the map.
