Kuki Group Alleges Manipur Police Sent Edited Fragments in Biren Singh Audio Case to Forensic Lab

The affidavit asks the Supreme Court to appoint a court‑monitored SIT to examine the full 48:46 recording.

Overview

  • The Kuki Organization for Human Rights Trust told the court that the Cyber Crime unit forwarded four short clips of 0:30, 1:28, 0:36 and 1:47 minutes instead of the complete 48:46 audio file.
  • NFSU’s confidential report said the files it received were modified and tampered, found them unfit for scientific voice comparison, and offered no opinion on whether the voice matched N. Biren Singh.
  • The affidavit argues NFSU limited its work to metadata and tamper detection without auditory or spectrographic analysis, and says even admitted control samples were wrongly deemed processed.
  • An earlier Truth Labs report on the full file reported no continuity breaks and assessed a 93% probability that the voice matched the former chief minister.
  • KOHRT says the fragments prevented verification of continuity, notes CFSL could not examine the material for the same reason, and states the matter remains before the Supreme Court.
