“…This is in agreement with the work done by Krishan and Sharma (2007) and the work done by Sen and Ghosh (2008) which indicated that the foot length provides highest reliability and accuracy in estimating stature of an unknown individual.…”

“…Kanchan et al, (2008) had similar conclusions also to the present study. Sen and Ghosch (2008) conducted a study on estimation of stature from foot length and foot breadth among the Rajbanshi: An indigenous population of North Bengal. It was shown that among the lower limb parameters, foot length had the highest correlation value with stature among the 350 adult Rajbanshi and 100 adult Meche individuals aged 18 -50 year, while foot breadth had the least correlation value.…”

“…Stature estimation is an important part of forensic investigations. Stature is anatomically complex that includes the dimensions of legs, pelvis, vertebral column, and skull, and the contribution of each of these to the total varies in different individuals and also in different populations [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8]. Stature estimation is an important constraint in identification of mutilated and skeletal remains which could be helpful in the investigation of the identity of victims of mass disasters and fatal assaults cases [9].…”

Introduction: Personal identification is preliminary concern of medico-legal and forensic investigation. There are various methods including Anthropometry, Fingerprints, foot imprint, bite mark, lip print, ear print by the help of which personal identification can be performed. In India, the bare foot imprints are frequently recovered at the crime scene and stature of a person can be estimated using foot imprint method, so analysis of bare foot imprints are often a necessity for forensic investigation. Materials and Methods: In this study, we made an attempt to reconstruct the stature using foot imprints (footprint and foot outline) method. The 200 samples of male and female age ranges from 18 to 30 years were collected from urban area of Bilaspur, Chhattisgarh, India. Footprint and outline methods were employed in this study, to correlate the size (length) of foot-imprints with the stature (height) A Ad dd dr re es ss s f fo or r c co or rr re es sp po on nd de en nc ce e: :
