Abstract
Tripura is one of the north-east States of India having long international border covering 856 km and rest 162km with Mizoram and Assam. It’s 3/4th area is covered with the forest. The topography of Tripura state is such that five hills/ranges run from north to south parallel to each other. Thus most of the areas covered either by hills or hill-locks with thick vegetation. The insurgents taking the advantage of such in-accessible area create subversive and anti social activities. Ambush was regular incident by the terrorist in the recent past and the situation is now under control. During the year 2002, in one case the terrorist ambushed a police vehicle in the morning carrying jawans of Tripura State Rifles (TSR). The ambush was at vulnerable point resulting the death of 20 jawans, 5 wounded and loss of fire-arms/ammunition from their possession. The paper presents a brief account of forensic investigation and the physical evidence detected has been discussed in details. The information in the paper could provide valuable intelligence input and further suggestions made will be useful for investigating agency in such type of cases.
