| Summary, etc |
Important and well known persons, such as politicians and celebrities, keep receiving letters, petitions, representations, fan mails, etc. There are occasions when they also receive letters/ written communications, which are abusive or suspicious in nature. Some letters/parcels may carry actual threat in the shape of an Improvised Explosive Device or other dangerous/hazardous substance, including poisons. Most of such abnormal communications are either anonymous or pseudonymous. A S Osborn in his monumental book Questioned Documents (1929) wrote an exclusive chapter on “Anonymous Letters” in which he mentioned “the anonymous letter writer has appropriately been called an assassin of character and these strange missives are often properly described as poison pen letters”. The chapter describes various analytical methodsbased on language, phraseology and handwriting characteristics for the identification of the anonymous letter writer. However, this paperemphasizes the various forensic aspects of detectionas well as handling of suspicious communicationsso that the inconspicuous identifying traces of the originator remainintact and facilitate the investigation.- Reproduced |
