Abstract

In India, the Test Identification Parade has been in use for a long time. The goal is to match the criminal suspect with other people so that they can be identified. The procedure of witnessing recognizing the accused from a group of people who look alike is known as a test identification parade. When the accused is in detention, a Test Identification Parade is frequently organized. Test Identification Parades are one of the most reliable types of eyewitness identification since they are based on the eyewitness' honesty, sincerity, and clarity. The goal is to determine whether the suspect or accused is the perpetrator of the heinous crime. The purpose of a Test Identification Parade is to confirm the accused identify and assist the police in their investigation.
