Sacrilege case: State lab junks CFSL handwriting report

Faridkot: The Forensic Science Laboratory report of the handwriting samples of Sukhjinder Singh, alias Sunny, accused of writing blasphemous posters in the sacrilege case, has opposed the findings of the CFSL of the CBI. While the CFSL had given a clean chit to Sunny, saying the authorship of the writings could not be connected with any samples attributed to Sunny, the Mohali-based FSL claimed similarities led the lab to the opinion of common authorship.
