Sheena Bora Case

CIRCUMSTANTIAL EVIDENCE
vs. CORPUS DELICTI

Challenges of Missing Evidence

Recently the CBI has notified that the bones and remains of Sheena Bora are untraceable. This throws a major wrench into the prosecution's case. Traditionally, the corpus delicti (body of evidence) is a cornerstone of murder investigations. Without it, proving Sheena's death becomes difficult, as the defense could argue she's alive elsewhere. Additionally, the body can reveal the cause and manner of death, along with crucial DNA evidence linking the accused to the victim.

While proving Sheena's death and cause become difficult, but the prosecution can still build a case. Witness accounts, financial records, and forensic analysis of belongings, confessions etc all can create a circumstantial narrative. Legal precedents show convictions based on strong circumstantial evidence are possible, making the outcome of the Sheena Bora case hinge on the prosecution's ability to build a cohesive and well- corroborated case despite the missing body.
